The project also involves the construction of several amenities. The town planners have imposed 11 conditions on the project, including completing road improvements and providing adequate open space.
Market demand supports the residential use of the development. There has been no public feedback on the project, which is part of the Cooley Station mixed-use development in Gilbert.

In the bustling world of real estate, finding an expert who combines professionalism with a friendly and approachable demeanor is like discovering a hidden treasure. Gilbert AZ has been fortunate to have Kasey Ingram, the driving force behind Equity Solutions Realty, who effortlessly blends these qualities to create an exceptional real estate experience.
The Heart Behind Equity Solutions Realty
Kasey Ingram is not your run-of-the-mill Realtor. She brings a unique blend of enthusiasm, tech-savviness, and a generous sprinkle of silliness to her work. However, beneath the laughter and jokes lies a seasoned real estate expert who takes her clients' needs to heart.
Kasey embarked on her real estate journey in 2005 when she earned her Realtor license. Her career reached new heights when, in 2010, she took the reins as the Designated Broker/Owner of Equity Solutions Realty. Her vision was clear: clients should receive not only professional service but also feel like they're working with a trusted friend. This philosophy sets her apart in the industry.
A Guiding Light in Challenging Times
Kasey's career coincided with some of the most challenging periods in real estate, especially during the era of short sales. During this time, she was handpicked by a local law firm to manage short sales for their distressed clients. It was a role that demanded not only negotiation skills but also empathy and a calming presence. Through these experiences, Kasey not only honed her negotiation expertise but also became a source of support for clients navigating through their most stressful moments.
A Personal Touch
Beyond her professional life, Kasey is a dedicated wife and mother to three wonderful children. Her family's love for the great outdoors and adventurous camping trips keeps them active and connected. Kasey's love for running, hiking, and powerlifting showcases her determination and commitment to a balanced life.
One of the remarkable aspects of Kasey's approach to real estate is her ability to maintain a harmonious balance between her career and family life. She values the flexibility that real estate offers, allowing her to excel as both a mother and a top-tier Realtor.
Building More Than Houses - Building Relationships
Equity Solutions Realty is not merely about buying or selling properties; it's about forging lasting connections. Kasey's clients often become like family, a testament to the care and dedication she pours into her work.
In a world where professionalism sometimes overshadows personality, Kasey Ingram and Equity Solutions Realty shine as beacons of authenticity. Her commitment to excellence, paired with her unique character, makes her an invaluable gem in the realm of real estate. Whether you're looking to make a move in Gilbert, or simply seeking expert real estate guidance, Kasey Ingram is your go-to Realtor, ready to make your real estate dreams a reality.
