Investment Properties for Sale in Farr West, Utah
Farr West sits just north of Ogden along I-15, a small Weber County city of roughly 7,500 people where most of the housing stock is single-family on quarter-acre to one-acre lots. For investors, the appeal is straightforward: steady tenant demand from Hill Air Force Base commuters, Weber State faculty and staff, McKay-Dee and Ogden Regional hospital workers, and the warehouse and logistics employees filling jobs at the Amazon and other distribution hubs along the 1900 West corridor. Vacancy stays tight because Farr West feeds into the Weber School District (Majestic Elementary, Orion Junior High, Fremont High), and families will pay a premium to stay in those boundaries. The town has no real apartment inventory, so single-family rentals and basement-unit setups carry most of the load.
Cash flow math here is different from Salt Lake County. Purchase prices are lower — most rental-grade homes trade between the mid $400Ks and high $600Ks — but Utah's non-primary-residence property tax treatment (no 45% residential exemption) eats into returns, so run the numbers with the higher tax rate baked in. Long-term appreciation has tracked the broader Wasatch Front, helped by the Falcon Hill expansion at Hill AFB and continued commercial growth along 2700 North. Short-term rentals are not the play in Farr West; this is a buy-and-hold market. Browse the active investment listings below to see what's currently on the MLS in town.

Common questions
About investment properties in Farr West.
What kind of rental demand does Farr West see? ▾
Renters here are usually families tied to jobs at Hill Air Force Base, the Ogden hospitals, Weber State, or the distribution centers along the I-15 corridor in West Haven and Ogden. Single-family rentals in the 3-4 bedroom range lease quickly because there's very little multifamily inventory in town. Turnover tends to be lower than in Ogden proper since tenants come for the schools and quieter setting.
Are there short-term rental (Airbnb) opportunities in Farr West? ▾
Farr West is primarily residential and doesn't draw the tourist traffic that Ogden Valley or Park City do, so STR demand is limited. Most investors here run long-term leases. If you want nightly-rental cash flow in Weber County, Eden, Huntsville, and Powder Mountain-adjacent properties are a better fit.
Does Farr West allow accessory dwelling units or basement apartments? ▾
Farr West City permits internal ADUs in some zones with a conditional use permit, and many of the larger homes built in the last 20 years already have walkout basements that were framed for a second unit. Always confirm with Farr West City planning before closing, because parking and owner-occupancy requirements apply.
What price range should I expect for a rental-grade single-family home? ▾
Most investor-viable single-family homes in Farr West trade in the mid $400Ks to high $600Ks, with newer builds and larger lots pushing past $700K. Older homes on bigger parcels along 2700 North and 1900 West occasionally come up and can pencil better on a price-per-square-foot basis.
Are there multi-family or small commercial properties on the MLS here? ▾
Duplex and fourplex inventory in Farr West is thin — the city's zoning leans heavily single-family. Investors looking for true multifamily usually expand the search to Ogden, Roy, or Clearfield. Occasionally a horse property or large-lot home will list with income potential from outbuildings or pasture leases.
How do property taxes and insurance affect cash flow in Weber County? ▾
Weber County property tax rates run roughly 0.6-0.8% of assessed value for non-primary residences, and the non-owner-occupied designation removes the 45% residential exemption, which materially raises the tax bill. Factor that into your pro forma before making an offer — it catches out-of-state investors most often.
