Homes Under $300,000 in Centerville, Utah
Centerville sits in a tight strip of Davis County between the Wasatch Mountains and the Great Salt Lake, and it's one of the pricier small cities on the bench — which makes anything under $300K a narrow slice of the market. At this price point you're mostly looking at older condos and townhomes near Parrish Lane or Historic Main Street, a handful of manufactured or mobile homes on leased or owned land, and the occasional fixer-upper single-family house that needs work. Detached homes under $300K are rare here; when one shows up it typically moves fast or comes with real issues like deferred maintenance, small lot size, or proximity to I-15.
Buyers chasing this range are usually first-timers priced out of Centerville's typical single-family stock, which runs well north of $500K, or downsizers who want to stay in the school boundaries for Centerville Elementary and Viewmont/Centerville Junior High without paying for square footage they don't need. Commute distance matters too — Centerville's FrontRunner station and easy freeway access to Salt Lake City (about 20 minutes) keep demand steady even for smaller units. Inventory turns over unpredictably, so a place that fits the budget today may not be here next week. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Centerville.
What kind of home can I actually get under $300K in Centerville? ▾
At this price point in Centerville, expect mostly condos, townhomes, and the occasional small twin home or older manufactured home on leased land. Detached single-family houses on their own lot rarely list under $300K here — Davis County's median sits well above that. Most under-$300K inventory shows up near Parrish Lane or along the Frontage Road corridor.
Are HOAs common in this price range? ▾
Yes. Almost every condo and townhome under $300K in Centerville carries an HOA, typically running $200-$350 per month. The fee usually covers exterior maintenance, roof reserves, landscaping, and sometimes water or sewer. Read the CC&Rs carefully — some communities restrict rentals, which matters if you ever plan to move and lease the unit.
How's the commute from Centerville to Salt Lake City? ▾
Centerville sits about 15 miles north of downtown Salt Lake, and the FrontRunner station in Farmington is roughly five minutes away. Most commuters hit I-15 or Legacy Parkway and reach downtown in 20-25 minutes outside rush hour. The Legacy route tends to move better during the morning crunch.
Which schools serve homes in this price range? ▾
Centerville falls under Davis School District, which consistently ranks among the strongest in the state. Properties typically feed into Centerville, Reading, or Tolman Elementary, then Centerville Junior High and Viewmont High. Boundaries shift occasionally, so confirm the assigned school with the district before writing an offer.
How fast do sub-$300K listings move here? ▾
Affordable inventory in Davis County moves quickly — often under two weeks when priced right and in clean condition. Townhomes near the freeway and FrontRunner draw multiple offers from commuters and first-time buyers. Having financing fully underwritten before you tour gives a real edge.
Are there down payment assistance programs that work in Centerville? ▾
Utah Housing Corporation offers first-time buyer loans with down payment assistance that pair well with FHA financing, and many under-$300K Centerville properties qualify. Davis County also occasionally runs HOME program funds. A local lender familiar with UHC overlays can tell you in one conversation what you're eligible for.
