      "This is a growth explosion area. With all the new high tech jobs moving into the area within the next 3-5 years, expect property values to double. All expansion road work will be complete by summer of 2012 so don't allow that to deter your buying choices. Also, expect to see a new super walmart and all downtown chains to relocate to the parkway within the next 24 months."
