Investment Properties for Sale in Clinton, Utah
Clinton sits in Davis County between Layton and Syracuse, a few minutes from Hill Air Force Base and about 25 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City. That proximity to Hill AFB matters for investors — the base employs roughly 20,000 people between military and civilian staff, and a steady stream of them need rentals on PCS timelines that don't wait around. Add in the Davis School District boundaries that pull renter families who want good schools without Layton or Kaysville price tags, and you've got a small city with real, durable rental demand rather than speculative churn. Most of the housing stock here is 1970s-2000s single-family and townhome construction, which keeps entry prices lower than neighboring Syracuse or Farmington while still drawing solid tenants.
Cash flow math in Clinton tends to work better on 3-4 bedroom rambler and split-entry layouts than on condos, since larger households — including military families renting while stationed at Hill — pay a premium for extra bedrooms and a yard. Investors here are mostly buying long-term rentals rather than short-term or vacation stays; Clinton isn't a tourist market, so occupancy depends on local job growth and Hill AFB stability, both of which have been steady for decades. Property taxes in Davis County run moderate compared to Salt Lake County, which helps net returns pencil out a little better. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

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.
