Commercial Real Estate News That Matters
From time to time we come across news articles we feel are important to highlight because of the strong impact it might have on our economy. Here are a few that caught our eye.
Arizona's Apartment Industry is a Major Economic Driver
AZ Big Media (AZRE) reported on an article written by Peter Madrid highlighting a study completed by Elliott D. Pollack & Company for the AZ Multifamily Assoc. (AMA). Of note: “The total annual economic impact of construction and operations within Arizona’s apartment industry is the equivalent to the state playing host to more than 10 Super Bowls each year. The apartment industry generates 22,000 jobs, $699 million in wages, and $3.8 billion in economic output each year as 37 percent of Arizona residents live in rental housing.”
Dreamport Villages: Developer proposes $4B Amusement Park over 1,500 acres in Casa Grande
Goodyear Approves Construction for Microsoft Project
The Goodyear City Council voted unanimously Monday (2.25.19) to approve an accelerated construction schedule for a Microsoft project. The developer agreement will allow the tech company to begin construction on the 279 acres it purchased in September of last year.  Companies like Microsoft may follow – realizing that Goodyear, and possibly other cities in the West Valley, will do what’s necessary to attract quality business.  
At the IREM – CCIM symposium held on 1.24.2019, Elliott Pollack presented a very detailed summary of the Valley’s economy and very positive projection for the future. He also noted possible concerns to be aware of. If you would like a copy of his slide presentation, contact Jim@KLCommercialGroup.com
