Silicon Slopes

Silicon Slopes

Over the next 5 years there is going to be much change at the Point of the Mountain in Utah also called "Silicon Slopes" because it is becoming the high-tech center of Utah. The Utah State prison is going to be relocated west of the Salt Lake City Airport, which will leave its current location ripe for development. In the surrounding North Salt Lake Area there will be 20,000 acres of land that will be projected to be used to high-tech company campuses such as Google. 

Theresa Foxley, the deputy director of the Governor's Office of Economic Development has said, "If we do this right I think this can be an absolute jewel not only for the state but the country in attracting the best talent, marquee companies, and creating a real culture within the state that's exciting, vibrant, dynamic and diverse," she said.

This is a prime time to purchase investment properties in the area because this redevelopment will bring thousands of jobs and people from out of state-which will only continue to drive up home prices. We would love to help you find one today!
