Find my niche

I am a new RE agent and am looking to find the proper niche for me. My biggest interest is residential RE and I am working in an area I have lived in my entire life. My prior line of work consisted of working in the majority of schools in my area so I have an indepth knowledge of directions, locations, and quality of schools. With this being said I am gearing my niche towards being an expert of my area which to me would be extremely appealing to new home buyers moving to my location. Essentially I would like to focus on helping home buyers moving to my area for the first time purchase a home.

The two questions I have are:

1. Is this to vague or extremely common of a niche since most realtors should know the area they are working in extremely well?

2. what are some other niches and how did you come to the conclusion that you would specialize in that particular area of RE?
