Most people would never buy a house without looking at the quality of local schools. Which is why Realtor.com has decided to 
use the Maponics school attendance boundaries to enhance their iOS and Android apps to determine determine which school services the home they are considering.
In fact, Realtor.com had the great idea to reverse the normal process with their app. Instead of simply being able to look for homes and then find out what school district the home is within, you could also start with a school district, and then find a range of homes that you want to look at. This is going to save homebuyers A LOT of time.
