Investment Properties for Sale in Perry, Utah
Perry sits just south of Brigham City along Highway 89, tucked against the Wellsville Mountains with fruit orchards still lining parts of the bench. It's a small Box Elder County town — under 6,000 people — but it has quietly become one of the more interesting spots in northern Utah for buy-and-hold investors. The reason is geography: Perry is fifteen minutes from the major Box Elder employers (Autoliv, Northrop Grumman's rocket facility, ATK), thirty minutes from Ogden, and about an hour from Salt Lake City International. That commuter math keeps rental demand steady from working families who want a yard and a quieter street than they'd get in Ogden proper.
Investment inventory here skews toward single-family rentals on generous lots, the occasional duplex, and larger parcels with agricultural or future-development upside as Brigham City keeps growing south along the 89 corridor. Cash flow is tighter at today's rates than it was five years ago, so most investors buying in Perry are underwriting for appreciation, slow rent growth, and the land component rather than chasing big monthly spreads. Property taxes are reasonable, Box Elder County landlord rules are straightforward, and tenant turnover tends to be low once a good family settles in.

Common questions
About investment properties in Perry.
What types of investment properties are typical in Perry? ▾
Most investor-friendly inventory in Perry consists of single-family homes on larger lots, some with accessory dwelling potential, plus the occasional duplex or small multi-family near the Highway 89 corridor. True apartment buildings are rare here — Perry is a small city of roughly 5,500 residents, so the bread-and-butter rental play is a 3-4 bedroom house leased to a family commuting to Brigham City, Ogden, or the Northrop Grumman/ATK facilities in Box Elder County.
What kind of rental demand does Perry actually have? ▾
Demand is steady rather than explosive. Renters here are usually families tied to jobs at Autoliv, Northrop Grumman, the Brigham City medical centers, or local agriculture, plus some commuters heading south to Ogden via I-15. Vacancy tends to be low because new rental supply is limited, but rent growth tracks the broader Box Elder County market — slower than Salt Lake or Utah County.
Are short-term rentals (Airbnb, VRBO) allowed in Perry? ▾
Perry City regulates short-term rentals through its zoning and business licensing ordinances, and they are not permitted by right in most residential zones. Anyone considering an STR strategy should call Perry City offices before writing an offer — long-term rentals are the safer assumption for underwriting a Perry purchase.
What price range should I expect for a rental-grade home here? ▾
Entry-level single-family homes in Perry generally run from the mid $300s into the mid $400s, with newer construction and larger acreage parcels pushing higher. Cash-flow math is tighter than it was a few years ago given current interest rates, so most investors buying in Perry today are playing for appreciation, equity paydown, and the agricultural land upside rather than day-one positive cash flow.
Does Perry have land or agricultural parcels that work as investments? ▾
Yes — Perry still has pockets of orchards, pasture, and larger residential lots along 1100 West and the bench areas, which appeal to buyers wanting horse property or a long-hold land play. Box Elder County's growth pattern (Brigham City expanding south, Perry filling in along 89) makes well-located acreage one of the more interesting investment angles here.
How many investment-friendly listings are active in Perry right now? ▾
