Homes Under $300,000 in North Salt Lake, Utah

Finding a single-family home under $300,000 in North Salt Lake takes patience right now. The city sits at the south end of Davis County, ten minutes from downtown Salt Lake and right against the Wasatch foothills, which has pushed median prices well above that mark over the past few years. At this price point, most of what comes up is townhomes and condos in newer developments off Eaglewood Drive and Main Street, older condos near Highway 89, and the occasional small rambler or manufactured home on a smaller lot in the older parts of town closer to Center Street. Detached homes under $300K are rare and usually need work.

The trade-off for the price ceiling is location: easy I-15 and Legacy Parkway access, Davis School District, and trails into Eaglewood and the foothills practically out the back door. HOA dues on the townhome and condo product typically run $150-$300 a month and often cover exterior maintenance, which matters when you're stretching to hit a payment. Buyers in this range are usually first-timers, downsizers, or investors looking at the rental demand from commuters who want out of Salt Lake County property taxes. Inventory turns over quickly when something priced right hits, so set up alerts if you're serious. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently available under $300K in North Salt Lake.

Common questions

About homes under $300k in North Salt Lake.

What kind of homes can I actually get under $300K in North Salt Lake?

Mostly townhomes and condos, typically 2-3 bedrooms and 1,200-1,600 square feet. Detached single-family homes at this price are uncommon and tend to be older ramblers needing updates, or smaller manufactured homes. New construction townhomes occasionally dip under $300K during slower sales periods.

Are there many listings under $300K at any given time?

Usually a handful — often fewer than ten active at once. North Salt Lake is a small city of around 23,000 people, and the sub-$300K segment is the thinnest part of the market. Inventory moves fastest in spring and summer.

Do most homes in this price range have HOA fees?

Yes. The townhome and condo communities that dominate this price tier almost all carry HOAs, generally $150-$300 per month. Dues typically cover exterior maintenance, landscaping, and sometimes water or trash. Factor that into your monthly budget when comparing to a detached home.

Is North Salt Lake a good area for first-time buyers?

It works well for commuters. You're 10-15 minutes from downtown Salt Lake, on Legacy Parkway and I-15, and in Davis School District which tends to score above state average. The foothill trails and Eaglewood Golf Course are within the city limits, which is unusual for a price point this close to Salt Lake.

Can I find anything with a yard under $300K?

Occasionally — usually older homes south of 1100 North or near Orchard Drive, often built in the 1950s-70s on small lots. Expect to budget for updates. Some townhomes also include small private patios or fenced yard spaces if a full yard isn't required.

How do property taxes compare to Salt Lake County?

Davis County's effective rates run slightly lower than Salt Lake County in most cases, which is part of the appeal for buyers commuting south. On a $290,000 primary residence with the residential exemption, expect annual taxes in the $1,500-$1,800 range, though exact rates vary by tax district.
