Homes Under $300,000 in Taylorsville, Utah
Taylorsville sits in the heart of the Salt Lake Valley, bordered by West Jordan to the south, Murray to the east, and West Valley City to the north — close enough to downtown Salt Lake City (about 12 miles) that a sub-$300K price tag still puts you within a reasonable commute of the Wasatch Front's largest job centers. The city of roughly 60,000 is served by the TRAX Green Line with stops at the 4800 South corridor, making car-free commuting to the University of Utah, downtown SLC, or Sandy a genuine option. Homes in this price range are almost exclusively single-family ramblers and ranch-style houses built between the 1950s and 1980s, along with a handful of townhomes and condos in newer infill developments. The trade-off for the price is square footage and updates — buyers at this level should budget for cosmetic renovations, aging HVAC systems, or original kitchens, though well-maintained exceptions do come up.
The Granite School District serves most of Taylorsville, and the city's flat, grid-pattern streets make it one of the more walkable and bikeable spots on the western side of the valley. Proximity to the Bangerter Highway and I-215 keeps commute times manageable without requiring you to pay Murray or Holladay prices. Inventory under $300K in Taylorsville moves quickly — days on market in this tier typically run well below the broader Salt Lake County average — so having a pre-approval letter ready before you tour is practical, not just polite.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Taylorsville.
What kinds of homes can I actually get under $300K in Taylorsville? ▾
Most active listings in this range are 2-bedroom condos and townhomes, manufactured homes in age-restricted parks, and small older single-family ramblers needing updates. Detached homes under $300K are uncommon and usually sell within a week or two when they appear.
Are HOA fees typical at this price point? ▾
Yes. Condos and townhomes in Taylorsville commonly carry HOA dues between $150 and $300 per month, which usually cover exterior maintenance, water, sewer, and trash. Factor that into your debt-to-income calculation when getting pre-approved.
Will FHA or VA loans work on Taylorsville homes in this price range? ▾
Often yes, but condition matters. FHA and VA both require the property to meet minimum standards — peeling paint, missing handrails, or a roof at end of life can kill a deal. Older units and some non-warrantable condo projects may push you toward conventional financing instead.
How competitive is the under-$300K market in Taylorsville right now? ▾
Attached homes tend to sit a bit longer and leave room to negotiate. Detached homes under $300K usually get multiple offers within days because that price is genuinely scarce along the Wasatch Front. Being pre-approved and ready to tour same-day makes a real difference.
What property taxes should I expect? ▾
Taylorsville falls under Salt Lake County, and primary-residence property taxes typically run around 0.55–0.65% of assessed value after the residential exemption. On a $280,000 home that's roughly $1,600–$1,800 per year — confirm the current rate with the county assessor before closing.
Is buying a condo here a reasonable rental investment? ▾
It can be. Proximity to Salt Lake Community College, the Bangerter corridor employers, and easy access to downtown supports steady tenant demand. Just verify the HOA's rental cap before you write — several Taylorsville complexes limit the percentage of units that can be rented at any one time.
