The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is planning a large new community development in Aurora, Colorado, continuing its expansion into master-planned real estate. The project is part of the Church's growing real estate portfolio, which includes major developments purchased with cash across multiple states.

The Church's real estate holdings have drawn increased scrutiny as reporting has revealed the scale of its property acquisitions and development projects. The Aurora community will join other Church-owned master-planned developments as part of what amounts to a significant real estate empire operated alongside its religious mission.
