Homes Under $300,000 in Marion, Utah
Marion sits in the Kamas Valley about ten miles east of Park City, tucked along the Weber River with the Uinta Mountains rising to the east. It's ranch country — hayfields, horse properties, and a small-town pace that feels a world away from the Wasatch Back resort crowd, even though the Park City lifts are a 20-minute drive. That proximity has pushed prices up considerably over the past decade, so anything under $300K in Marion is genuinely rare. When listings do appear in this range, they're typically vacant land parcels, manufactured homes on owned lots, older cabins, or the occasional fixer needing significant work.
Buyers shopping this price point in Marion are usually looking at one of two paths: a build-ready lot where you'll bring construction financing and a builder, or an existing structure that trades a lower entry price for sweat equity. South Summit School District serves the area and is a real draw for families, and the commute to Kimball Junction or Heber City is manageable year-round. Keep in mind that well and septic are the norm here rather than municipal utilities, and snow load, road maintenance, and winter access matter when evaluating any rural property. Inventory turns slowly in Marion, so it's worth setting up alerts and acting quickly when something hits the market. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently available under $300K.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Marion.
What kind of properties actually sell under $300K in Marion? ▾
At this price point you're mostly looking at raw or semi-improved land parcels, older manufactured homes, small cabins, or distressed properties needing renovation. Traditional stick-built single-family homes under $300K are very uncommon in Marion given how the Kamas Valley market has moved. Expect limited inventory and plan to move quickly when something fits.
How often do homes under $300K come on the market in Marion? ▾
Sporadically — sometimes a few weeks pass without a single listing in this range, and sometimes a manufactured home or fixer surfaces unexpectedly. Setting up an MLS alert through our office is the most reliable way to catch them. Many of these properties go under contract within days.
Can I get financing on a manufactured home or fixer in Marion? ▾
It depends on the property's condition, foundation type, and whether it's titled as real property. Conventional and FHA loans have specific requirements for manufactured homes, and heavy fixers may need a renovation loan like a 203(k) or a construction-to-perm product. A local lender familiar with rural Summit County properties is worth the call before you write an offer.
Are there utility considerations I should know about? ▾
Most properties in Marion are on private well and septic rather than city water and sewer. Budget for well inspections, septic pumping, and potential upgrades. Natural gas is not available in many pockets, so heating is often propane, electric, or wood — which affects monthly costs and insurance.
What school district serves Marion? ▾
Marion is part of South Summit School District, with schools located in nearby Kamas. The district has a strong local reputation and is one of the reasons families consider the Kamas Valley over closer-in Park City options.
How far is Marion from Park City and Salt Lake City? ▾
Park City's Kimball Junction is roughly 15-20 minutes via Browns Canyon Road or US-40. Salt Lake City and the airport run about an hour, depending on weather and canyon conditions. Heber City is a similar 20-minute drive south through Francis.
