Home prices in Salt Lake County hit an all-time high, with no signs of slowing

Single-family homes in Salt Lake County reached an all-time record median price, above $381,500 during the three months ending in September, new data indicates.

As housing markets along the Wasatch Front continue a multiyear upward climb, the median sales price in Utah’s most populous county stood fully $26,500 above where it was a year before, for a 7.5% gain over the same quarter in 2018, according to data from the Salt Lake Board of Realtors.

More dramatically, that price tag is now at least $80,500 above its level of just three years before, when the median single-family home reached $301,000, an all-time high at the time.
