What is a house worth in Kaysville right now?
The typical Kaysville home is worth about $686,522 as of May 31, 2026, per the Zillow Home Value Index, up 2.1% over the past year.
That is more than $115,000 above the Davis County median single family price of $568,450 reported for Q2 2026 by the Salt Lake Board of Realtors. Kaysville earns the premium with larger lots, strong schools, and an established feel that west Davis County's newer cities are still growing into. Within that citywide number the spread is wide, from older east bench homes to new West Kaysville builds, which is exactly the gap a certified appraisal closes.
“East of I-15 and west of I-15 are two different Kaysville markets. Knowing which comps belong to which side is where accurate value starts.”
What drives property value in Kaysville?
Kaysville is the established family city of Davis County, and buyers pay for that stability. Incorporated in 1868 as the county's first city, it wraps a historic Main Street district with mature, tree lined neighborhoods on the east bench along US-89 and newer, larger homes spreading through West Kaysville on the other side of I-15. Davis High School, the USU Botanical Center along the Kaysville ponds, and the Davis Technical College campus anchor daily life, and Barnes Park hosts the city's signature summer events.
For valuation, the east side and west side behave like different markets. East bench homes trade on lot maturity, remodel quality, and school boundaries; West Kaysville trades on newer construction, square footage, and access to I-15 and the West Davis Highway. Weston appraises both sides regularly and matches comps to the right side of the freeway, because pulling a West Kaysville sale to value a 1970s bench home misstates property value in either direction.
When do you need a home appraisal in Kaysville?
Purchase and refinance appraisals are the core, and with typical values near $687K, most Kaysville homes still fit under the $744,050 Davis County FHA limit. Longtime ownership makes estate and date of death appraisals frequent here, establishing value for inheritance and tax basis. Apex also handles divorce appraisals, PMI removal appraisals under the CFPB's 80% of original value rule, pre listing appraisals before a sale, and appraisals supporting property tax appeals.

What is my house worth in Kaysville?
Zillow's index says the typical Kaysville home is worth about $686,522 as of May 2026, but indexes average old bench homes with new West Kaysville builds.

How much does a home appraisal cost in Kaysville?
Most Utah single family appraisals run roughly $400 to $800. Typical Kaysville tract and bench homes fall in that range; large custom homes or unusual properties can run higher because comp research takes longer. Apex quotes the exact fee before the assignment starts, and delivery averaged under 5 days in 2026.
What is a date of death appraisal?
A date of death appraisal establishes what a home was worth on the day its owner passed away, a retrospective value used for estate settlement and the step up in tax basis. With many Kaysville homes held for decades, that value often determines significant capital gains treatment for heirs. Weston prepares these regularly for attorneys, executors, and families.
