Among large metro markets, Salt Lake City has zoomed ahead in terms of job creation with a 4.2 percent gain from one year ago. Increasingly, more cities are now topping a three percent job growth rate as the economy continues to expand.

Utah’s economy is highlighted in this week’s The Economist. What the article sadly did not mention is that Governor Gary Herbert was a former president of the Utah Association of REALTORS®. Electing a person who understands the real world and the importance of real estate to the economy is paying off in Utah. RPAC (REALTOR Political Action Committee) is also making a difference in winning elections.
