Homes Under $300,000 in South Jordan, Utah
South Jordan is one of the pricier suburbs in Salt Lake County, with a median single-family price that has hovered well above $600,000 in recent years. That makes homes under $300K a narrow slice of the market here, and it shapes what you'll actually see: mostly condos, townhomes, and the occasional older manufactured home or small unit in a co-op community. Single-family houses at this price are rare enough that they tend to go under contract quickly when they do appear.
Most of the under-$300K inventory sits in attached housing near the Daybreak area, along Redwood Road, and close to the TRAX Red Line stations at South Jordan Parkway and Daybreak Parkway. These locations put you roughly 20 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City and about 30 from the airport, with Jordan School District zoning and quick access to Mountain View Corridor and I-15. Buyers should look closely at HOA dues, which can add several hundred dollars a month and change the real affordability picture, and check whether a community has FHA or VA approval if you plan to use those loans. Daybreak's Oquirrh Lake, trails, and parks are available to many nearby townhome owners. Prices shift weekly, so browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in South Jordan.
Can you actually find single-family homes under $300K in South Jordan? ▾
Rarely. South Jordan's single-family median is well above $600K, so detached houses under $300K are almost always older, smaller properties or rare distressed sales. The vast majority of inventory in this price range is condos, townhomes, or manufactured homes.
What kinds of properties dominate the under-$300K range here? ▾
Condos in communities along Redwood Road and near 10400 South, interior townhome units in older projects, and manufactured homes in age-restricted parks where you own the home and lease the lot. Each comes with different financing rules and monthly costs.
Do HOA fees significantly affect what I can afford? ▾
Yes, and they vary widely — anywhere from around $150 to over $400 per month in South Jordan condo and townhome communities. Lenders count HOA dues in your debt-to-income ratio, so a high fee can knock $30K–$50K off your maximum loan amount. Always ask what the dues cover before comparing two listings.
Will FHA or VA loans work on condos in this price range? ▾
Often yes, but only if the specific condo project is FHA- or VA-approved. Some South Jordan complexes are approved, others aren't, and approval status can change. Your agent or lender can pull the current status on any building you're considering before you write an offer.
Are manufactured homes on leased land a good buy under $300K? ▾
They can work well for buyers who want low entry pricing and an active 55+ community, but the lot rent (often $700–$1,000+ per month) is on top of your mortgage and typically rises annually. Financing is also different — chattel loans rather than traditional mortgages — and they don't appreciate like land-owned property.
What first-time buyer programs help in this price range? ▾
Utah Housing Corporation offers down payment assistance and below-market rates for qualifying first-time buyers, and both FHA (3.5% down) and conventional 3% down loans are common at this price point. VA loans require no down payment for eligible veterans. A local lender can run all three side by side.
How fast do sub-$300K listings move in South Jordan? ▾
Faster than the city average. This is the entry-level price point in one of the most desirable Salt Lake County suburbs, so well-priced condos and townhomes often see multiple offers within the first week. Having financing fully pre-approved before you tour is important.
