Most people have gotten the word that just northeast of Charlotte North Carolina Real Estate will be the Kannapolis Bio-tech Research Park. This state of the are scientific development center will be in Cabarrus County in the city of Kannapolis. Kannapolis was a small mill town with the Pillowtex Textile mill. That closed down a few years ago and Kannapolis would have fallen on hard economic times. Fortunately, Kannapolis is just 35 minutes to Charlotte and Robert Murdock moved in an made the Kannapolis Real Estate disaster into a huge gain. Kannapolis Real Estate consisted of many nice small "cottage style" homes throughout this working class city.
Now enter the Bio-Tech Research park. This sleepy little mill town will quickly transform into a white collar town with a projected 30,000 jobs for the research park. Now expand this to all of the supporting shops and restaurants! There are very few high end real estate developments close by but one is Wellington Estates. Wellington Estates is just 5 miles from the research park with custom brick homes. This is just the tip of the iceberg in the area. The time to buy up Kannapolis property is passing you by.
