How much is a home in Murray worth?
Zillow puts the typical Murray home at $546,866 in data through August 31, 2026. Listings went pending in a median 24 days in August. That average blends about 2,800 condo units, many from the 1970s and under 1,200 square feet, with 1950s to 1970s house plats and a smaller set of newer homes past 2,000 square feet (county records, March 2026).
A citywide figure says little about one address, so Weston compares your home with Murray sales of the same type, age and size. Salt Lake County's 2026 FHA limit for a one unit home is $637,100 (Homebuyer.com).
In Murray, the first question about any comparable sale is whether it was a condo or a house.
How is housing in Murray divided?
Murray's housing splits three ways in county records: postwar and 1960s houses on fifth to quarter acre lots, 1970s condo projects with units often under 1,200 square feet, and a smaller group of newer plats with larger homes.
Walden Hills
The largest recorded subdivision in Murray: about 327 homes built 1977 to 2001, most around 1980, on lots near 0.23 acre with houses about 1,710 square feet in county records. Walden Glen and Walden Ridge are separate plats with different lot sizes and eras, so a sale's plat gets checked before it is used.
Three Fountains
Two condo plats, Three Fountains and Three Fountains East, hold about 525 units built 1969 to 1972 (plus one 2017 record). Units average roughly 1,660 and 1,300 square feet. Sales inside the project are the first comparables, and for a loan the lender also reviews the condo project and its association.
Auburn Gardens Place
About 270 homes, nearly all from the late 1950s, on lots near 0.18 acre with houses averaging 1,310 square feet. With so many houses of the same age and size, the value gap between two sales usually comes down to updates, additions and condition.
South Cottonwood Acres
Two plats with about 273 homes. Build years run from 1900 to 2022 but average 1958, on lots near 0.24 acre. An early farmhouse, a 1950s house and a recent rebuild can share this plat name, so Weston compares effective age and condition rather than the recorded year.
Wynwood
One of Murray's newest single family plats: 126 homes built 2019 to 2022 on lots near 0.15 acre, averaging about 2,040 square feet. Few have resold yet, so comparable sales come from other recent construction nearby, adjusted for lot size and finish.
Tall Oaks
Fifty five homes, most from the mid 1980s on and one from 2021, on lots near 0.26 acre. The average house is about 3,420 square feet in county records, the largest of any Murray plat in this data, so close comparables inside Murray are scarce.

What moves home values in Murray?
Product type comes first: Murray's condo units, mostly from the 1970s, trade against other condo sales, not against houses. In house plats like Auburn Gardens Place and Paradise Park, where homes run near 1,300 square feet, a full remodel can outweigh a few hundred square feet of size.
Most plats sit on 0.18 to 0.26 acre lots, but Alpine Gardens and South Cottonwood Heights average about a third of an acre, so Weston checks land sales before adjusting for lot size. Newer plats like Wynwood and Bullion Place have short sales histories. Murray City School District runs Murray High, while Granite School District operates Cottonwood High and Woodstock Elementary inside city limits.
Which appraisals can Weston do in Murray?
Weston appraises Murray homes for purchase and refinance loans, estate and date of death values, divorce and settlement work, tax assessment appeals, pre listing or consulting reports and PMI removal (the CFPB lets a borrower ask to cancel at 80 percent of original value, with an appraisal as possible evidence). See services. Weston is FHA approved; FHA reports also test the home against HUD's minimum property standards, and on a condo the lender reviews the project. Turn time record: 100 percent on time in 2025 and under five days on average in 2026, which works out to about a week from order to delivered report, and usually less. Call (801) 403-7723 to order.
Common questions from Murray homeowners
What is my house worth in Murray?
Zillow's typical Murray value was $546,866 through August 31, 2026, but a 1970s condo near 900 square feet and a 1990s house near 2,800 square feet are separate markets. An appraisal prices your home against closed Murray sales of its own type, era and size.
What is the 2026 FHA loan limit in Murray?
Murray falls under Salt Lake County's 2026 FHA limit: $637,100 for a one unit property, per Homebuyer.com's county table. Weston is FHA approved, so Weston can take the FHA appraisal on a Murray purchase or refinance.
Is a Zestimate accurate for my Murray home?
Not for one specific house. Zillow's model never sees inside, so it cannot tell an original 1959 house in Auburn Gardens Place from a remodeled one next door. Weston inspects the home and adjusts real sales for those differences.
How long does a home appraisal take in Murray?
Most of the time goes to research after the visit: finding and checking Murray sales of the same type. The turn time record is in the services section. Reports follow UAD 3.6, which Fannie Mae requires from November 2, 2026.
