Multi-Family Homes for Sale in South Ogden, Utah
South Ogden sits in a sweet spot along the eastern bench of the Ogden metro — close enough to downtown Ogden's employment and transit corridors, yet distinctly residential in character, with tree-lined streets and quick access to Ogden Canyon and the Wasatch trails beyond. Multi-family properties here — duplexes, triplexes, and small apartment buildings — attract two distinct types of buyers: owner-occupants who want a tenant's rent check to offset their mortgage, and investors building a Northern Utah portfolio without paying Wasatch Front premium prices. Weber County's population has grown steadily over the past decade, and South Ogden's rental vacancy rates have stayed tight, which keeps demand from renters reliable even as the broader market shifts. Median single-family prices in the Ogden metro hover in the mid-$300,000s to low $400,000s, and multi-family buildings here often price on a per-unit basis that pencils out better than comparable properties in Salt Lake or Davis counties to the south.
The city's zoning landscape matters when you're shopping multi-family. South Ogden's R-2 and R-3 zones allow for higher-density residential use, but lot sizes, setback requirements, and parking minimums vary block by block — so verifying current zoning before making an offer is a non-negotiable step. Proximity to Weber State University (about four miles northwest on Harrison Boulevard) creates a durable tenant pool of students, faculty, and healthcare workers tied to nearby McKay-Dee Hospital. Ogden-Hinckley Airport is roughly ten minutes west, and I-15 access keeps Salt Lake City within 40 minutes. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About multi-family homes in South Ogden.
What counts as a multi-family home in South Ogden? ▾
On the Weber County MLS, multi-family generally means duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes on a single parcel with one deed. A single-family house with a basement mother-in-law apartment is usually listed as residential with an ADU, not multi-family. If you want true rental income on separate meters, look specifically for the multi-family property class.
Where in South Ogden do most duplexes and small multi-family buildings sit? ▾
The bulk of older duplexes are west of Harrison Boulevard near 40th and 36th Street, with some scattered along Madison and Adams. These are typically 1960s–1980s side-by-side units on flat lots. Newer multi-family construction is limited because most of South Ogden is built out and zoned single-family.
Can I use an FHA or VA loan to buy a duplex or fourplex here? ▾
Yes, if you plan to live in one of the units as your primary residence. FHA allows up to four units with 3.5% down, and VA allows zero down for eligible borrowers on up to a fourplex. The property also has to pass the appraisal and meet rent-to-PITI ratios the lender requires.
What kind of rents do South Ogden units pull? ▾
Two-bedroom units in South Ogden typically rent in the $1,200–$1,500 range, with three-bedroom sides closer to $1,600–$1,900 depending on condition and garage access. Proximity to Weber State University and McKay-Dee Hospital keeps demand steady year-round, which is the main reason small investors target this submarket.
How does South Ogden compare to Ogden proper for multi-family investing? ▾
South Ogden is a separate city with its own police, lower crime stats than downtown Ogden, and generally better-kept housing stock — which means higher acquisition prices but easier tenant screening and lower vacancy. Cash-on-cash returns tend to be tighter than central Ogden, but appreciation and tenant quality have historically been stronger.
Are short-term rentals allowed in South Ogden multi-family properties? ▾
South Ogden restricts short-term rentals (under 30 days) in most residential zones, so Airbnb-style use on a duplex is not a safe assumption. Long-term leases of 30 days or more are the standard play here. Always confirm current code with South Ogden City before writing an offer based on STR income.
