Does it make sense to pay the extra to buy in the quality school zone catchment areas?

Today, I dive into Perth’s top public high schools and unpack whether living in those suburbs gives you better property growth, or if you'd be better off buying cheaper and sending your kids to private school.

I also break down how saving on school fees could boost your borrowing power by up to $1.5 million. Yep, you read that right.

Whether you're buying a home or investing, I’ll show you how school zones potentially impact growth, rental demand, and your long-term strategy. Want to make smarter choices with your next move? Hit play and get the full breakdown.

Let’s go inside.
