ZIP Code: 84105
Report Date: April 2026
Market Temperature: NEUTRAL
Scope: Single-Family Residential (SFR) listings and comps only


Executive Overview

The median sold price in Salt Lake City (84105) stands at $749,900, reflecting a stable market with slight price appreciation. This indicates a resilient demand despite the current inventory dynamics. The neighborhood has increased 15% since 2023, suggesting a positive trend in property values. However, the market temperature is currently classified as neutral, indicating a balance between buyer and seller activity.

Transaction activity has shown moderate velocity, with 249 days as the median days on market, which points to slower sales relative to historical norms. Elevated inventory levels are present, suggesting excess supply relative to sales activity. This shift may provide opportunities for buyers, although the overall market remains competitive due to strong rental demand, despite modest declines in median market rent, currently at $2,061.
