The Apex Las Vegas Realty Advantage

I belong to the league of Las Vegas lovers. Tied as I am to this celebrated metropolis, I am proud to be a part of this unprecedented success story. I love introducing clients to projects, new and to others up for re-sale, that represent best value for money. I have been in the business for some time, but still have occasion for new angles on the exciting business of selling Las Vegas real estate.

I have just realized the full value of the Apex Industrial Park for residence and commercial real estate in and around the Strip. I had thought of industrial realty as being a specialized field, and have not had many enquiries during my career, about places where people can establish factories. Homes yes, shops sure, but a place to manufacture chemicals and things-not likely!
Then I read about Henderson and the accident in the Black Mountain Industrial Park, which happened before my time as a realtor. To cut an unpleasant story short, I now accept, and urge on others to consider, that the scarce industrial area for Las Vegas needs to be appreciated better. The enormous and ongoing surge of people moving in from other parts of the United States to Nevada needs heavy industry for sustenance. This is as much for utilities such as power as for labor intensive production that creates a steady stream of jobs.

I have concluded that the Apex Industrial Park is a great resource for Las Vegas realty values in the long term. Industrialists can invest in plots that range from 5 to 500 acres each at this 10 thousand acre site. This makes it suitable for enterprises of all sizes. It is just 20 minutes from the Strip, but located such that the air quality and ambience of prime residential and commercial realty in Las Vegas is not affected. The Park is well served by both Highway 93 and the Union Pacific Railroad. It is a cinch to get raw materials in and to ship finished products to any part of the United States, or to the world for that matter. Apex is connected to a national natural gas network and there is plenty of electric power as well. As usual with Nevada’s liberal tax laws, industries in Apex also have important commercial concessions.

This is a Win-Win for everyone. Industry leaders enjoy competitive manufacturing benefits, and the greater Las Vegas community is protected from untoward adverse incidents such as Henderson witnessed in 1988. Apex makes an important contribution to Nevada’s economy, and is set to keep our employment numbers at healthy levels. Recent studies show that Las Vegas has less than 50 square feet of industrial space per person, which is way below what a progressive state such as Nevada deserves. Residential and commercial real estate developers are willing to pay over $500 thousand an acre for precious land near the Strip, so factory owners do not have good chances! That does not mean that we should undervalue the contribution of industry to a balanced and healthy future for Las Vegas. So raise a toast for Apex!
