New Listings in Orem, Utah

Orem sits in the heart of Utah County between Provo and Lindon, with the Wasatch rising directly east and Utah Lake to the west. New listings here move quickly because the city pulls from a wide buyer pool: UVU students and faculty, Provo tech workers commuting to Silicon Slopes, families wanting the Alpine School District, and downsizers trading larger lots for single-level living near 800 North or Center Street. Most resale inventory falls in the $450K–$700K range for mid-century ramblers and split-entries in established neighborhoods like Sharon Park, Cascade, and Suncrest, while newer townhomes near University Place and the FrontRunner station trend lower. Larger custom homes on the east bench above 1600 North can run well past $1M with canyon views over Provo and Mount Timpanogos.

Watching brand-new listings matters in Orem because well-priced homes near good elementary schools (Cherry Hill, Westmore, Sharon) often go under contract within the first weekend. Setting up a same-day alert is the practical move — by the time a home has been on the market a week, you're usually looking at backup offers or a price that didn't match the condition. Pay attention to lot size, original vs. updated mechanicals (a lot of Orem's stock dates to the 1960s–80s), and whether the basement is legally finished. The list below refreshes as agents post new homes to the Wasatch Front MLS, so check back often or save the search to get notified the moment something hits.

Common questions

About new listings in Orem.

How fast do new listings in Orem typically go under contract?

Move-in-ready homes priced under $600K in popular school boundaries often see offers within 3–7 days, sometimes the first weekend. Higher-priced east bench homes and properties needing work tend to sit longer — two to six weeks is normal above $900K.

What's the best way to be notified the moment a new Orem listing hits the MLS?

Save this search and turn on instant email or text alerts. Our system pushes new listings within minutes of an agent posting them, which is usually faster than the public portals like Zillow or Realtor.com that can lag by a few hours.

Are there many new-construction homes coming on the market in Orem?

Orem is largely built out, so true new construction is limited compared to Saratoga Springs or Vineyard. Most new listings are resales, with occasional infill townhome projects near University Place, the FrontRunner corridor, and small teardown-rebuilds on the east bench.

Which Orem neighborhoods see the most listing activity?

Sharon Park, Cascade, Suncrest, and the neighborhoods around 800 North turn over most often because of their size and price point. The east bench above Cascade Golf Course lists less frequently but commands the highest prices when homes do come up.

Should I waive the inspection to win a new Orem listing in a multiple-offer situation?

We don't recommend it, especially given the age of much of Orem's housing stock — sewer lines, furnaces, and roofs from the 60s and 70s are common issues. A better strategy is a shorter inspection period (4–5 days) and an info-only inspection, which keeps your offer competitive without surrendering all leverage.

What price range should I expect for a new listing in Orem right now?

Most active inventory falls between roughly $425K for older townhomes and small ramblers up to about $750K for updated 4-bedroom homes in good school zones. East bench custom homes and larger lots can list anywhere from $850K to $1.8M depending on view, size, and finish level.
