Homes Under $300,000 in Perry, Utah
Perry sits in Box Elder County along the Wasatch Front, a short drive from Brigham City and about 20 minutes north of Ogden via Highway 89 or I-15. Homes under $300K here are getting harder to find as Perry's proximity to the Ogden job market and Hill Air Force Base draws more buyers north out of pricier Weber and Davis County submarkets. What's still available at this price point tends to be older single-family homes built in the 1970s-90s near Perry's original town core, manufactured and modular homes on owned land, townhomes, or the occasional fixer needing cosmetic work. Lot sizes in Perry often run larger than what you'd get in Ogden or Layton at the same price, since the city hasn't fully built out and many parcels still carry a quarter-acre or more.
Buyers watching this price range are typically first-time purchasers, HAFB personnel and contractors commuting to the base, or retirees looking for lower property taxes and a quieter setting than South Ogden or Riverdale. Winters bring lake-effect snow off the Great Salt Lake and temperatures in the 20s-30s, while summers stay warm and dry with easy access to Willard Bay State Park a few minutes north for boating and fishing. Inventory under $300K moves fast when it appears, since Perry's total housing stock is small compared to neighboring cities. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Perry.
How many homes under $300K are typically available in Perry? ▾
Perry is a small town of roughly 5,000 residents, so the sub-$300K inventory is thin — usually a handful of listings at any given time. Most of what shows up in this range are older homes near 1100 South and the historic core, manufactured homes on owned land, or smaller townhomes. Check back often, because listings here tend to move within a couple weeks.
What kind of home can I realistically get under $300K in Perry? ▾
At this price point in Perry, expect 2-3 bedroom homes built in the 1970s-90s, smaller ramblers around 1,000-1,400 finished square feet, or manufactured/modular homes on a permanent foundation. Newer construction in Perry's subdivisions off Highway 89 generally starts above $400K, so under $300K usually means an older property or something needing updates.
Is Perry a good commute to Ogden or Brigham City for work? ▾
Yes — Perry sits right on US-89 between Brigham City (about 3 miles north) and Willard, with Ogden roughly 20 minutes south via I-15. ATK/Northrop Grumman in Promontory, Autoliv in Brigham City, and the IRS facility are all within an easy drive, which is part of why budget-conscious buyers look at Perry.
What's the property tax situation in Perry? ▾
Perry is in Box Elder County, which has some of the lower property tax rates along the Wasatch Front — generally around 0.6-0.7% of assessed value for a primary residence with the Utah owner-occupied exemption. On a $290K home that runs roughly $1,800-$2,000 a year, noticeably less than comparable homes in Weber or Davis County.
Are there any HOAs or fees I should watch for at this price? ▾
Most older Perry homes sit on standalone lots with no HOA, which is part of the appeal. The exception is townhomes and a few newer subdivisions off 1200 West and Highway 89 — those can carry monthly HOA dues of $100-$200. Always confirm before writing an offer, since it changes your true monthly payment.
Will a USDA loan work in Perry? ▾
Parts of Perry still qualify for USDA Rural Development financing, which means 0% down for eligible buyers under the income limits. Eligibility is address-specific and the maps get redrawn periodically, so verify the exact property on the USDA eligibility site or ask your lender to pull it before you tour.
