Elliot Swart spent his last day in Boston in June packing up his Jeep Wrangler for a four-day, one-way road trip to Phoenix.
Mr. Swart had been renting a one-bedroom apartment in the Prudential Center, which also was where 3Derm, the medical-software startup he co-founded, was based. When the coronavirus pandemic shut down his office, Mr. Swart, in the process of putting together a permanent remote engineering team, saw the opportunity for a major reboot.
“I always knew I loved Phoenix,” said Mr. Swart, who is 29 and now the chief architect of Digital Diagnostics, which acquired 3Derm in August. “I love off-roading, I love the desert. I wanted to stop living life on hard mode, but at the same time, I still wanted a city with all the trappings of modernity.”
Just before New Year’s Eve, he closed on a four-bedroom home built into a mountain cliff with views of downtown Phoenix for $932,000. The home, in a gated community near North Mountain Park, has vaulted ceilings, a master suite with a balcony and a spacious wraparound patio with a cascading waterfall.
