Utah housing markets showed significant price variations across different communities in August 2026, according to a report published September 10. While Realtor.com reported a statewide median listing price of approximately $584,923, individual city-level asking prices varied dramatically across the state.
Several Utah markets recorded median asking prices below the statewide benchmark in August 2026. Ogden reported a median listing price of $386,975, which was roughly $198,000 below the statewide median. Brigham City saw a median asking price of $440,000, approximately $145,000 below the benchmark, while Tooele's median remained below the statewide average at $452,500.
Conversely, several Utah communities reached median listing prices approaching or exceeding $1 million in August 2026. Alpine recorded the highest median asking price among the featured communities at $2.38 million. Park City's median listing price was approximately $1.96 million, and Highland's median was approximately $1.39 million, which is more than twice the statewide median. Holladay reported a citywide median listing price of approximately $975,000.
In Utah County, significant price gaps exist even between neighboring ZIP codes. According to Q2 2026 data from the Salt Lake Board of Realtors, median single-family sale prices in Goshen were $400,000, while Provo's ZIP code 84601 saw a median of $499,949. In contrast, Alpine's 84004 ZIP code recorded a much higher median single-family price of $1,545,000.
Market statistics are snapshots that do not represent the price of every individual home or predict specific property values. Experts suggest that buyers should compare actual inventory, recent sales, and property types rather than relying solely on statewide medians.
