Investment Properties for Sale in Hyrum, Utah
Hyrum sits about seven miles south of Logan in Cache Valley, which makes it one of the more practical small-town markets in northern Utah for rental income. Utah State University drives a steady demand for off-campus housing, and Hyrum's lower entry prices compared to Logan or North Logan mean cash-on-cash returns tend to pencil out better here than closer to campus. Add in employers like Schreiber Foods, JBS, and the manufacturing corridor along Highway 165, and you have a working-class tenant base that pays rent on time and stays put. Median home prices in Hyrum typically run 10-15% below Logan proper, while rents only drop about 5-8%, which is the spread investors look for.
The investment stock here splits into a few categories: older single-family homes near Main Street and the Hyrum Tabernacle that work as long-term rentals or light flips, newer builds on the east bench toward Blacksmith Fork Canyon that attract young families, and the occasional duplex or basement-apartment setup. Short-term rental demand exists but is thinner than Logan — most STR traffic comes from USU football weekends, Hyrum Reservoir summer visitors, and American West Heritage Center events. Cache County's landlord-tenant climate is straightforward, property taxes are reasonable, and winters are cold enough that you'll want to budget for furnace maintenance and frozen-pipe prevention on any rental you take on. Browse the active listings below to see which Hyrum properties are currently positioned to work as rentals or value-add projects.

Common questions
About investment properties in Hyrum.
What kind of rental income can I expect in Hyrum? ▾
A typical 3-bed single-family rental in Hyrum runs roughly $1,600-$2,000/month depending on age, garage, and yard. Duplexes and homes with finished basement apartments can push gross rents higher when configured as two units. Vacancy is generally low because Cache Valley's rental inventory is tight year-round.
Is Hyrum a good market for student rentals? ▾
It can work, but most USU students prefer Logan or North Logan to cut the commute. Hyrum tends to attract graduate students, married student housing, and USU staff who want a quieter setting and lower rent. If you're targeting undergrads, properties closer to the 165/89 corridor with easy bus access perform better.
Are short-term rentals allowed in Hyrum? ▾
Hyrum City regulates short-term rentals through its business licensing and zoning code, and not every zone permits them. Before buying with STR income in mind, confirm the specific parcel's zoning with Hyrum City and check whether a conditional use permit is required. Long-term rentals are far less restricted.
What should I budget for property taxes and insurance? ▾
Cache County property tax rates are among the more reasonable in Utah, generally landing around 0.6-0.8% of assessed value for non-primary residences (note the residential exemption does not apply to rentals, so taxes are higher than on owner-occupied homes). Insurance is moderate, though older homes with knob-and-tube or aging electrical can drive premiums up.
Are there many duplexes or multi-family listings in Hyrum? ▾
Multi-family inventory is limited — Hyrum is predominantly single-family. When duplexes or fourplexes do hit the market, they tend to move quickly. Many investors here create a second unit by finishing a legal basement apartment in a single-family home, which is allowed in certain zones with proper permits.
What's the biggest risk with Hyrum investment properties? ▾
The two things to watch are deferred maintenance on older Main Street homes (foundations, sewer laterals, and original wiring) and winter-related damage on vacant or poorly insulated units. Cache Valley winters routinely drop below zero, so any property you buy should have a recent furnace inspection and well-insulated pipes.
