What is a Draper home worth?
The Census Bureau's 2020 to 2024 survey puts the median owner occupied Draper home at $784,800, and 68.6 percent of Draper homes are owner occupied. That is a five year survey figure; one address is valued from recent closed sales near it.
The median covers very different homes. County records show condos near 1,200 square feet at Draper Peaks and Bella Monte, tenth acre lots in Inauguration, and Steeplechase houses near 3,900 square feet on half acre lots, with plats built from the 1870s through 2024.
In Draper, which side of the county line a house sits on can change the loan before it changes the value.
How do Draper's neighborhoods differ?
Draper divides by era, slope and product type: county records list about 90 recorded subdivisions with 40 or more homes, mostly built from the mid 1990s through the 2000s, plus SunCrest on the ridge and more than a dozen condo and townhome projects.
South Mountain
Draper's largest recorded subdivision: about 1,170 homes on the slope that also holds the Draper Amphitheater. Most went up around 1999 on lots near a fifth of an acre, roughly 2,300 square feet in county records. With so many similar houses, South Mountain resales usually supply the comps, and condition and updates separate them.
SunCrest
A planned community atop Traverse Ridge between Draper and Alpine, in plats such as Maple Hollow, Oak Vista and Stoneleigh Heights, built since 2000. Part of it lies in Utah County, which changes the FHA limit and school district. Views and grade differ lot to lot, so Weston adjusts only where ridge sales support it.
Draperville
The old town plat still carries the name of Draper's 1854 post office. County records show about 116 homes with build years from 1874 to 2017 (average 1956) on lots near 0.63 acre. Pioneer era houses and recent builds share these blocks, so effective age and land value count for more than the recorded year.
Fields at Draper
A condominium project of about 300 units built 1997 to 2001, averaging 1,290 square feet. The best evidence is a resale inside the same project; a detached Draper sale says little about a condo here. Lenders also look at the project itself (HOA, budget, owner occupancy), so Weston collects those details with the unit.
Steeplechase
About 170 homes, mostly from 2002 to 2010, with the largest average house size in Draper's county records at roughly 3,920 square feet, on lots near half an acre. Few Draper sales match that size, so the search for comps often reaches back in time or out in distance, and each step needs support in the report.
Hidden Canyon Estates
One of Draper's newest large plats: about 224 homes built 2017 to 2023 on quarter acre lots, near 2,600 square feet each. Resales here go up against builder pricing in other new Draper phases, so Weston compares finish level and lot position with care before calling two of them equal.

What drives home values in Draper?
Product type comes first. A Fields at Draper condo and a half acre house at Fox Crossing sell to different buyers, so Weston starts with sales of the same kind of home. Era is next: newer phases such as Edelweiss and Big Willow Creek still compete with builders, while 1990s plats lean on condition and updates.
Then location. The Salt Lake County part of Draper is in Canyons School District and the Utah County part is in Alpine School District (per Wikipedia), and the two counties have different 2026 FHA limits. On Traverse Ridge, grade and views vary by lot. The Point, on the former state prison site near Point of the Mountain, broke ground June 29, 2026, with a 363 unit apartment building in phase one.
Which appraisals does Weston do in Draper?
In Draper, Weston takes purchase, refinance, estate and date of death, divorce, tax appeal, PMI removal and pre listing assignments (services). As an FHA approved appraiser, Weston also reviews each FHA home against HUD's minimum property standards, and every report is UAD 3.6 ready. On timing: 100 percent on time in 2025, and an average turn time under five days in 2026, which means about a week from order to delivered report, and usually less. Call (801) 403-7723 to set one up.
Draper appraisal questions
What is my house worth in Draper?
The Census median for Draper owner occupied homes is $784,800 (2020 to 2024 survey), but that mixes small condos with 3,900 square foot hillside homes. An appraisal measures your house, lot and condition against closed sales of similar Draper homes.
How much does a home appraisal cost in Draper?
Most Utah single family appraisals fall between $400 and $800, per FairPriceCheck. A large SunCrest or acreage home can cost more because the comp search takes longer. Weston quotes the fee before you commit; call (801) 403-7723.
Is an appraisal more accurate than my Zestimate in Draper?
A Zestimate is a model that never walks through the house. Draper puts condo projects and half acre lots close together, and models blur them. An appraiser inspects the home and reconciles real closed sales.
How should I prepare for a Draper home appraisal?
Open every room, including the furnace room and any storage space. Have a list of upgrades with dates, plus permits for any addition or finished space. For an FHA loan, fix safety items such as missing handrails or broken windows first.
