What are West Valley City homes worth in 2026?
Zillow put the typical West Valley City home at $465,915 at the end of August 2026, up 0.4% in a year, with listings going pending in a median 17 days. That one figure blends east side brick ranches from the 1960s and 1970s with townhomes built since 2019 out west.
County records count about 18,900 homes in 90 of the city's largest subdivisions; 59% sit in plats averaging a pre 1980 build year, and most average 1,000 to 1,400 square feet. A West Valley City appraisal starts with sales of the same era and product type.
With 1970s houses and 2020 townhomes a few miles apart, the first comp filter here is build era, then product type.
How does West Valley City housing divide up?
By era, from east to west. The city formed in 1980 from Granger, Hunter, Chesterfield and Redwood; county records put the oldest large plats, such as Hillsdale near 3000 West, on the east side, while plats west of 6000 West, such as Hunter Village and Vistas at Westridge, went up mainly after 2000.
Hillsdale
The city's largest recorded subdivision, around 2900 to 3100 West near 3000 South, on streets such as Appleton Drive. County records count 829 homes averaging a 1957 build year on 0.19 acre lots, at about 1,330 square feet. Builds run from 1923 to 2019, so each house's effective age after remodeling shapes the comp choice.
Colony West
Around 4000 West between about 2900 and 3100 South, on Wendy Avenue, Carla Street and nearby streets. County records show 823 homes, mostly from the 1970s, on 0.21 acre lots near 1,190 square feet. With so many similar floor plans, condition and updates separate one sale from the next.
Diamond Summit
West side streets such as High Bluff Drive and Mount Whitney Lane. County records list 733 homes built 1996 to 2015, averaging 2001, on 0.20 acre lots with about 1,490 square feet. The plat is big enough to be its own comp pool, so sales from inside it come first.
Hunter Village
Near 6800 to 7050 West between about 2900 and 3400 South, along Hunter Village Drive and Hunter Oak Way. County records show 571 homes averaging a 2004 build year on 0.24 acre lots, about 1,720 square feet. Lots here run larger than in most newer plats, an adjustment Weston tests against sales.
Vistas at Westridge
Around 6000 to 6200 West near 4400 to 4500 South, on Haven Ridge Way and Vista Mesa Drive. County records count 443 homes built 2005 to 2024 on 0.17 acre lots near 1,760 square feet. Builds spanning almost 20 years mean build year gets matched before anything else.
Westshire
Just south of Valley Fair Mall: 160 homes designed by modernist architect Ron Molen, all built in the 1960s and 1970s in the Mid Century Modern style. Ordinary ranches nearby make weak comps for these, so Weston searches wider for sales of design driven homes from the same era.
Cherrywood Village
Around 5000 to 5200 West near 4300 South, on Cherry View Drive and Lotus Blossom Drive. County records show 458 homes averaging 1974 at about 1,000 square feet on 0.17 acre lots. In houses this small, a measured size that differs from county records moves the value, so Weston measures every home.

What drives West Valley City home values?
Age, size and condition, mostly. About half of the large plats average a 1960s or 1970s build year, and 65 of 90 average 1,000 to 1,400 square feet, so updates and measured living area separate most sales. Lots vary less: 71 of those plats average 0.17 to 0.24 acre, with Chesterfield Place near half an acre.
Granite School District serves West Valley City, and Granger High and Hunter High both sit inside the city (Granite School District). Before treating a school boundary as a price line, Weston looks at recent sales on both sides of it.

How can I check a West Valley City appraiser's Utah license?

Can an appraisal help me drop PMI on a West Valley City home?
The CFPB says you can ask your servicer in writing to cancel PMI once your balance is scheduled to fall to 80% of the home's original value, if payments are current. You may need evidence, such as an appraisal, that the value has not dropped. PMI ends automatically at 78%.
