ZIP Code: 84103
Report Date: February 2026
Market Temperature: NEUTRAL
Scope: Single-Family Residential (SFR) listings and comps only


Executive Overview

As of February 2026, the Salt Lake City market, specifically in the 84103 ZIP code, is characterized by a median sold price of $805,000. This reflects a market that has seen a moderate increase in pricing, although specific historical price change data is not available. The current median listing price stands at $952,500, indicating a notable gap between asking prices and actual transaction values, which may suggest seller expectations are not fully aligned with market realities.

Market activity is showing signs of moderation, with median days on market reaching 243 days, indicating slower sales velocity and a potential shift towards a more balanced market environment. Elevated inventory levels are present, suggesting excess supply relative to sales activity, which may further influence pricing dynamics as buyers navigate a landscape of elevated interest rate pressure, currently averaging around 6.58% for 30-year fixed mortgages. This environment may challenge affordability for potential buyers, impacting overall market liquidity.
