Investment Properties for Sale in Clinton, Utah
Clinton sits in northern Davis County between Roy and Syracuse, about 30 minutes north of Salt Lake City and ten minutes from the west gate of Hill Air Force Base. That location is the entire investment thesis here: a steady stream of military families, defense contractors, and aerospace workers cycling through 2-to-4 year assignments keeps long-term rental demand consistent year-round. The housing stock is a mix of 1990s and 2000s subdivisions plus newer infill near 1800 North and Legacy Parkway, which means investors can find updated four-bedroom homes without paying Farmington or Kaysville prices. Median sale prices generally run in the mid-$400s to low-$600s depending on age, lot size, and finished basement square footage.
For rental underwriting, the numbers in Clinton work best on properties with a finished basement (often legal or semi-legal accessory apartments), a fenced yard, and a two-car garage — the standard checklist for Hill AFB tenants. Property taxes through Davis County are reasonable, the Davis School District is a real draw, and snow load and irrigation costs are modest compared to homes further up the bench. Short-term rentals are restricted in most residential zones, so plan around long-term leases.

Common questions
About investment properties in Clinton.
What rent ranges do Clinton single-family homes typically command? ▾
A three or four-bedroom home in Clinton generally rents in the $2,000–$2,600 range, with newer builds near 1800 North and Legacy Parkway pulling the top end. Townhomes and smaller ramblers usually land between $1,600 and $1,900. Hill Air Force Base demand keeps vacancy short, especially for tenants who want a 12-month lease on a clean, move-in-ready property.
Are short-term rentals (Airbnb/VRBO) allowed in Clinton? ▾
Clinton City regulates short-term rentals through its business licensing and zoning ordinances, and most residential zones do not permit nightly rentals as a by-right use. Long-term rentals (30+ days) are the standard investment model here. Always confirm current rules with Clinton City Community Development before closing on a property intended for STR use.
Does Clinton have an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance? ▾
Yes. Clinton allows internal accessory dwelling units in single-family homes under specific conditions, including owner-occupancy and off-street parking requirements. Detached ADUs are more restricted. Basement apartments are the most common rental setup investors add to existing homes in the area.
Who is the typical tenant pool in Clinton? ▾
Hill AFB personnel, contractors at Falcon Hill, and families working in Layton, Roy, and Clearfield make up the bulk of renters. Many tenants want quick access to I-15, Antelope Drive, and the FrontRunner station in Clearfield. Schools in the Davis School District are a meaningful draw for family renters.
What price points should investors expect in Clinton right now? ▾
Most single-family homes trade in the mid-$400s to low-$600s, with older ramblers on larger lots occasionally coming in lower and newer two-story builds near 2000 West reaching higher. Townhomes generally run $325,000–$425,000. Cash flow is tight at current rates, so most buyers underwrite for appreciation and principal paydown rather than day-one yield.
How does Clinton compare to nearby Layton or Roy for rental investing? ▾
Clinton tends to have slightly lower entry prices than Layton and a newer housing stock than much of Roy, which appeals to tenants who want updated finishes without a Layton premium. Property taxes and Davis County services are comparable across all three. Inventory in Clinton is smaller, so deals move quickly when they're priced right.
