Triplex in American Fork, Utah

[Mike Xiao]

Does anyone have some inputs on American Fork UT, and its nearby surrounding areas? It seems to have grown quite a bit, with high tech companies moving in.  Specifically looking at a new development in American Fork called Easton Park, Triplex.

Hi @Jared Carpenter 

Lehi & AF are definitely one of the spots that I believe are the best in Utah. There are also other areas that I'm keeping an eye on, such as Vineyard, Herriman/Riverton, Bluffdale, Draper, Sandy, Cottonwood Heights, etc. But Lehi/AF is by far my favorite because it is the heart of the next big tech metro. The population is rapidly growing, land and home value are appreciating FAST. The renters demographic is high-paying tech & education industry employees/families (UVU, BYU are minutes away, and they are both expanding their campus). The prices are definitely going up but not as built out as Vineyard or Herriman, thus cost to value ratio is great right now. Adobe is doubling the size of their office. There is going to be a huge retail growth surrounding Traverse Mountain & Thanksgiving point, the ongoing construction of the new mountain view corridor and the future transit projects will dramatically improve the access to uptown and the new suburban retail core. (which is another reason I like Herriman/Riverton area, because it will be much easier commuter access to the Lehi tech area) http://udot.utah.gov/mountainview/dld/MVC_MAP_Marc...

I hope this answers your question :)
