What Ogden homes are actually selling for
The quickest way to sanity-check any number you've seen for your house is to look at what the market is doing now. These figures come from closed sales in the MLS and refresh automatically.
98 residential sales closed in October 2026. Typical asking price today: $359,000. 422 homes for sale. Year-over-year compares October 2026 with the same month last year.
Are Ogden home prices dropping?
Not across the board. The median sale price is within 2.6% of where it was a year ago, which is a flat market, not a falling one. One month's median moves with whichever homes happened to sell, so read it as a direction, not a precise change for your home. What has changed is leverage: a home priced right still sells, while one priced on last year's optimism sits and often ends up selling for less.
Is Ogden a buyer's or seller's market?
With about 4.3 months of supply, the market is roughly balanced. Under about four months usually favors sellers; over six favors buyers. Homes are closing at about 98.6% of list price, so most sellers are negotiating a little, not taking big cuts. The citywide number hides a lot. A move-in-ready home in a popular neighborhood can still draw quick offers while a dated one nearby waits, and that gap is what a home-by-home analysis is for.
Median sale prices by neighborhood in Ogden
| Neighborhood | Median sale price | Homes sold | For sale now |
|---|---|---|---|
| Midtown Village | $375,000 | 30 | 8 |
| Nobb Hill | $415,000 | 14 | 1 |
| Shadow Valley | $845,000 | 13 | 2 |
| El Rancho | $320,000 | 9 | 3 |
| Nob Hill | $450,000 | 7 | 0 |
| Mountain Ridge | $437,000 | 7 | 2 |
| Ron-Claire Village N | $315,000 | 5 | 1 |
| Valley View | $635,000 | 5 | 4 |
Closed residential sales over the last 12 months, from the MLS. Neighborhoods with fewer than five sales aren't shown. Area medians are a starting point, not an answer: two homes on the same street can sell far apart once size, lot, layout and condition are counted, and a median moves with whatever mix of homes happened to sell.
Selling a home in Ogden
Ogden is Weber County's largest city, with about 89,500 residents, and one of the most varied housing markets in northern Utah. Historic homes in the older neighborhoods near downtown, mid-century homes across the city, bench homes with valley views in places like Shadow Valley, and condos and townhomes near Weber State all sell to different buyers at different prices. The neighborhood table above shows the spread.
Ogden also draws buyers for what's around it. Snowbasin, Nordic Valley and Powder Mountain are all within about 20 miles, Pineview Reservoir is up Ogden Canyon, and the Ogden River Parkway runs through town. Weber State University, McKay-Dee Hospital and Hill Air Force Base just to the south bring steady demand, and FrontRunner and the OGX bus line connect downtown, the university and the hospital.
Because so many Ogden homes are older, condition and updates do most of the work in separating one sale from the next. A CMA from a local agent matches your home with sales of the same age and style in the same part of the city, then adjusts for updates, basement finish, garage and view.
From a person, not an algorithm
What you get with a free Ogden home valuation
A real comparative market analysis from a local agent, the same document we'd prepare for a client deciding whether to list.
Comparable sales
Recent closed sales and active listings near you in Ogden, pulled from the same MLS data an appraiser will use.
A price range and a strategy
A realistic range with the reasoning behind it, and the trade-off between pricing to sell quickly and testing the top of the range.
A short consult
Phone, video or in person, your pick. A conversation about your timeline and options, with no obligation to list.
The method
How we figure out what your Ogden home is worth
A comparative market analysis answers one question: what will a ready buyer pay for this home right now? It's the same way an appraiser will look at your home if the buyer finances the purchase.
-
1
Pull the right closed sales
Utah is a non-disclosure state, so sale prices aren't in public records. We start with closed MLS sales, ideally from your own neighborhood in Ogden, from the last three to six months, and close to your home in size, age and style. In a slow pocket we look farther out or farther back, and we tell you when we did.
-
2
Adjust for what's different
No comparable sale is identical. We adjust each one for living area, basement finish, lot, garage, views, age and updates. A comp with a brand-new kitchen sold for more than a home without one will, and we account for it.
-
3
Read the competition
Closed sales show what happened. Active and pending listings show what a buyer will compare you with next weekend, and expired listings show the prices buyers turned down.

Land on a range, then a strategy
You get a realistic price range, a likely sale price and an expected time on market. Then we talk through how to use it, so you know the trade-off before you decide.
Local factors
What moves home values in Ogden
National valuation tools treat a square foot the same everywhere. Buyers here don't. These are the details that most often separate two Ogden homes that look identical on paper.
Age of the home and what's been updated
Much of Ogden's housing is decades old. Buyers and inspectors look closely at wiring, plumbing, the sewer line, the foundation and the roof, and they pay noticeably more for homes where that work is done and documented.
East bench views
Homes on the east bench with valley views and quick access to the foothill trails and Ogden Canyon sell in a higher tier than similar homes on the flats. View quality varies by street, so we compare view homes with each other.
Short-term rental rules
In Ogden's R-1 zones, short-term rentals are allowed only when owner-occupied. In the R-2 through R-5 and R-9 zones, non-owner-occupied rentals are allowed one per block, and the owner needs three years of ownership first. 25th Street and the entertainment zone have their own caps. A home's rental eligibility is worth confirming before you price on rental income.
ADUs and basement apartments
Ogden allows ADUs when the owner lives in the main house or the ADU, with detached units from 300 to 800 square feet and two off-street parking spaces. The ADU permit doesn't carry over to a buyer automatically; it ends at sale. Buyers who want the rental income need to know that.
Historic character
Ogden has National Register districts on Lower 25th Street, Eccles Avenue and Jefferson Avenue, and exterior work on historic properties goes through the Ogden Landmarks Commission. Buyers value original character, but they also price in the review process for changes.
Rental history and condition
Many Ogden homes have been rentals at some point. Fresh paint, updated flooring and repaired wear help a former rental compete with owner-occupied homes that have been kept up.
Radon and older basements
Radon is common in Utah homes, and buyers often test for it during inspection. A recent test or a mitigation system answers the question before it becomes a negotiation.
Know which number you're looking at
Online estimate, CMA or appraisal?
You can get a number for your house in ten seconds from Zillow, Redfin or Realtor.com, and it's a fine place to start. Just know what's behind it. Automated estimates read public records and listing data, and here they often can't see what homes actually sold for. They also can't see your remodeled kitchen, your finished basement or the view from your back patio.
| Online estimate | CMA from a local agent | Appraisal | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who prepares it | An algorithm | A licensed agent who knows the area | A licensed appraiser |
| What it sees | Public records and listing data | MLS sales, current competition, your home's condition and updates | Closed sales and an inspection of the home |
| Cost | Free | Free | Usually several hundred dollars |
| Turnaround | Instant | Usually within one business day | About a week or more |
| Best for | A rough idea | Deciding whether, when and at what price to sell | A mortgage, refinance, estate or legal matter |
One more number you'll see is the county assessor's market value on your valuation notice. It's set as of January 1 for tax purposes, and a primary residence is taxed on 55% of it because of Utah's 45% residential exemption. It's useful, but it isn't a sale price, so don't price your home from your tax notice.
Before you list
Getting the most for your Ogden home
The best return usually comes from the unglamorous work, not a rushed remodel.
- Service the HVAC. Inspectors check heating and cooling first. A recent service record makes buyers more confident.
- Clean up the outside. Trimmed trees, fresh mulch or rock and working sprinklers are a cheap way to improve the first photo.
- Paint and light. Fresh neutral paint and bright bulbs do more for photos and showings than almost anything else at the same cost.
- Fix the small items now. Leaky faucets, cracked tile and worn caulking show up in inspection reports and turn into repair requests.
- Gather your paperwork. HOA documents, any solar agreement, warranties, permits for a finished basement or addition, and records of upgrades answer buyer questions before they turn into negotiation.
- Skip the big remodel. A new kitchen right before listing rarely pays back in full. We'll tell you which updates are worth it for your price range.
Not selling yet? Other good reasons to know your value
Plenty of the valuations we prepare are for owners who aren't listing at all. Knowing what your home would sell for helps when you're:
- • Considering a refinance or HELOC, so you know roughly how much equity you have before a lender orders an appraisal.
- • Deciding whether to sell or rent it out, by putting the likely sale price next to what the home could rent for.
- • Handling an estate, a divorce or a relocation, where everyone needs a realistic number. A court or lender will usually still require a formal appraisal.
- • Planning a move up or down, so you can see what you could afford next before you start shopping.
