Homes Under $300,000 in Garland, Utah
Garland sits in Box Elder County along the Bear River, about 20 minutes from Tremonton and roughly an hour north of Salt Lake City. It's still one of the few pockets in northern Utah where a home under $300,000 is a realistic goal rather than a rumor. Expect older ranch-style homes and split-levels from the 1960s-1980s, some on larger lots with room for a shop or animals, plus the occasional smaller newer build or manufactured home on a permanent foundation. Lots here tend to run bigger than what you'd get in Logan or the Ogden bench, which matters if you want space for a garden, chickens, or a boat for Bear River Bird Refuge outings.
Buyers at this price point in Garland are usually commuters to Tremonton, Brigham City, or the ATK/Northrop Grumman plant in Promontory, along with retirees and first-time buyers priced out of Cache Valley and the Wasatch Front. Winters bring real cold and occasional inversion haze off the Bear River bottoms, so check heating type and age on anything built before 1990 — propane and older forced-air furnaces are common and worth budgeting to replace. Property taxes and insurance run low compared to Davis or Utah County, which helps offset a longer commute. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market under $300K.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Garland.
What kind of homes actually sell under $300K in Garland right now? ▾
Mostly older ramblers, split-entries, and basic two-story homes built between the 1960s and 1990s, often on lots of a quarter acre or more. You'll also occasionally see manufactured or modular homes on permanent foundations in this range. Newer construction is rare below $300K here — most new builds in Box Elder County now start closer to $350K.
Is Garland a good option if Tremonton or Brigham City are priced too high? ▾
Yes, that's exactly why a lot of buyers end up looking here — Garland typically runs $20K-$40K cheaper than comparable homes in Tremonton for a similar lot size. You give up a bit of shopping convenience but gain space and often a quieter, more rural feel.
How much land comes with a typical sub-$300K home in Garland? ▾
Many listings sit on a third of an acre to a full acre, sometimes with outbuildings, a shop, or room for a few animals — Box Elder County's zoning in this area is generally more permissive than city lots along the Wasatch Front. If animal rights or irrigation shares matter to you, ask specifically, since not every lot carries them.
What should I budget for beyond the purchase price on an older Garland home? ▾
Plan on inspecting the furnace, water heater, and roof closely, since many homes in this range haven't had major updates in 15-20 years. Septic systems are common outside the main water/sewer district, so a septic inspection is worth the few hundred dollars it costs. Property taxes run modest by Wasatch Front standards, generally a few hundred to around a thousand dollars a year depending on the home's value.
How's the commute from Garland to Salt Lake City or Ogden? ▾
Ogden is about 35-40 minutes via I-15, and Salt Lake City runs closer to an hour depending on traffic near Layton and Farmington. Most owners in this price range are commuting to Ogden, Logan, or local employers in Tremonton and Brigham City rather than making the daily drive to Salt Lake.
Are there many homes under $300K available in Garland at any given time? ▾
Inventory is thin — Garland is a small town, so expect anywhere from a handful to a dozen active listings under $300K depending on the season. Homes in good condition at this price point tend to move quickly, so it helps to have financing pre-arranged before you start touring.
