Homes Under $500,000 in South Jordan, Utah
South Jordan sits in the southwest corner of the Salt Lake Valley, and the under-$500K bracket here is where the city's first-time buyers, downsizers, and relocating tech workers all compete for the same listings. The bulk of what comes to market at this price is townhomes and condos in Daybreak — the master-planned community around Oquirrh Lake with its own TRAX station, miles of trails, and the SoDa Row retail strip. You'll also see attached product near The District shopping center, older single-family homes in the Riverpark and 10400 South corridors, and the occasional patio home in established subdivisions east of Bangerter Highway. Detached single-family homes under $500K in South Jordan are getting rare, and when one lists in move-in condition it usually goes under contract inside two weeks.
The appeal is straightforward: South Jordan ranks among the top cities in Utah for median household income, the commute to Silicon Slopes in Lehi runs 15–20 minutes south on Bangerter or Mountain View Corridor, and downtown Salt Lake is about 25 minutes north. Intermountain Riverton Hospital, Mountain America Credit Union's headquarters, and the Jordan and Canyons school districts all sit within the city. Buyers at this price point should plan around HOA dues — most attached homes carry them, and Daybreak adds a community assessment on top — plus property tax rates that run slightly above the Salt Lake County average.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in South Jordan.
What kind of home can I actually get in South Jordan under $500K? ▾
Most sub-$500K inventory in South Jordan is townhomes, condos, and smaller patio homes — typically 2 to 4 bedrooms between 1,400 and 2,200 finished square feet. Detached single-family homes at this price point do come up, but they tend to be older Daybreak attached product, Riverpark-area townhomes, or properties needing updates. Newer construction at this price is almost always attached.
Which South Jordan neighborhoods have the most listings under $500K? ▾
Daybreak consistently has the largest share of sub-$500K listings thanks to its mix of townhomes and condos around SoDa Row and the Village Center. You'll also see options in Kennecott Daybreak's newer townhome phases, along The District area near Bangerter, and in older pockets near 10400 South and Redwood Road. Single-family detached at this price is rare west of Mountain View Corridor.
Are HOA fees a factor at this price point? ▾
Yes — most homes under $500K in South Jordan are attached product with HOAs, and in Daybreak there's an additional community assessment on top of any sub-HOA. Expect combined dues in the $80–$220/month range depending on the neighborhood. Always check what the HOA covers (exterior, roof, water, amenities) because it varies a lot between communities.
How are South Jordan schools at this price range? ▾
South Jordan is split between Jordan School District and Canyons School District depending on location, and the under-$500K inventory pulls from both. Daybreak homes feed into Jordan District schools like Daybreak Elementary and Herriman or Bingham High. Always verify the specific school boundary for any address — they shift, and being one street over can change the assignment.
Is it realistic to find a home with a yard under $500K here? ▾
Realistic but limited. Townhomes with small private yards or fenced patios are the most common option, and a handful of older detached homes with full yards list in this range each month — usually built in the 1990s or earlier and often needing some updating. If a real backyard is non-negotiable, expect to act quickly when one hits the market.
How fast do sub-$500K South Jordan homes sell? ▾
This is the most competitive price bracket in the city because it overlaps with FHA and VA loan limits and draws first-time buyers, investors, and people relocating from out of state. Well-priced, move-in-ready listings often go under contract in under two weeks. Homes that sit usually have an HOA issue, deferred maintenance, or a location drawback worth investigating.
