The local read
Under $500K sits just under the typical Murray home
In shortOwners in Murray put the typical home at about $507,500 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024), so under $500K sits just below that figure. Here you will find older brick ramblers, condos and townhomes by the train stations, and some smaller detached homes. The MLS feeds this page, and the newest homes come first.
Start with the number. Census owners say the typical Murray home is worth about $507,500 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024). A budget under $500K lands a little below that. It is the first price page for Murray, so nothing is lower on this site. Condos, townhomes, older ramblers and smaller detached houses all fit here.
About half of Murray's homes went up between 1940 and 1979, and that shows on this page. Many detached homes are brick ramblers, which is the Utah word for a one-story house, or split-levels on the older blocks near State Street. Some have been updated, and others still need work. Newer condos and townhomes sit near the Murray North and Fashion Place West stations.
Look at the lender side early. Each condo or townhome project goes through its own lender review, so ask which project a home is in before you fall for it. A pre-approval tells you your price cap. Spring brings the most listings, and winter is slower.
Want more room? The under $600K page is the next step up, with updated ramblers and split-levels. The Murray hub covers the whole city, and asking me helps narrow the search.

One step up
under $600K adds updated ramblers and split-levels.
At this budget
the choice is about type and condition. You can buy a condo or townhome by the trains, an updated rambler, or a smaller detached home that needs work.
Either way
Think of each price page as a first stop. Tell me the two or three things the home must have, and I will pass them to a partner agent who knows which page to shop.

What the money buys
Under $500K comes in three kinds of home
Almost every home on this page is one of three kinds. Each has a clear trade-off, so it helps to know which one fits you before you start touring.
Older brick ramblers and split-levels
These are the one-story and split-level brick homes from the 1940s to the 1970s that fill the older blocks around State Street. Many have mature trees and a real yard. Updates differ from house to house, so the age of the furnace, wiring and plumbing matters.
The catch: an older house, so check the systems. What you get: a yard, tall trees and a settled street.
Townhomes near the train stations
Newer townhomes sit near the stations, including Fashion Place West by the mall. Many have a two-car garage and current finishes, and there is no yard to mow. Each project goes through its own lender review, so ask which project a home is in.
The downside: a shared wall. The payoff: newer construction and less upkeep.
Condos along the Fireclay corridor
Around the Murray North station, on Fireclay Avenue, condos and apartments make up most of the newer building in town. Some buildings are older and some are brand new. A train stop is a short walk away.
The cost: a denser setting. What it buys: an easy trip to the train.
Each week leans toward one kind more than the others. The Homes for Sale page shows today's mix, and its filters let you pick beds, baths or home type.

Looking at the next two price pages
Each price page buys a different mix of homes, not just a bigger version of the last one. This table sets the next two side by side. You are on the first column.
| Comparison point | Under $500K This page | Under $600K | Under $700K |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical home | Older ramblers, townhomes, condos | Updated ramblers, split-levels | Granite side, Murray Central |
| What you give up | Some updates and room | Cash for other things | A simple district answer |
| What you gain | Condos to detached homes | Roomier, updated homes | Room, or a train walk |
| Where you look | State Street and stations | Old downtown, Murray Park | East side, Murray Central |
| What to check first | Furnace, wiring, project rules | Age of the updates | District line, train noise |
A price page is a place to start, not a rule. Tell me your must-haves and I will pass them to a partner agent, who can say which page to shop.

How to shop under $500K in Murray
A few habits set buyers apart on this page: knowing the budget, knowing the one or two must-haves, and knowing which project or street they are looking at. These four steps cover them.
Learn your price cap
A pre-approval letter shows what a lender is ready to approve. It also tells a seller you can follow through. Ask for it before you tour, not after.
Write down your must-haves
List the one or two things the home must have. Maybe it is a yard, a garage, one floor or a walk to the train. Deciding before you tour keeps you from chasing every pretty kitchen.
Set up listing alerts
Homes at this price can be posted on any day. An email alert tells you when a fit posts.
Walk each home with a local agent
A partner agent I trust in Salt Lake County can show you the street, check what nearby homes sold for, and tell a cosmetic flaw from a real one. These guides help too: the home buying process and how to write an offer.
Quick answers
Under $500K in Murray, answered
Older brick ramblers and split-levels, condos and townhomes near the train stations, and some smaller detached homes. Which ones show up changes each week, so the live listings above are the best guide.
Yes, a little. The typical home is valued near $507,500, so this page sits just under it. That figure comes from Census owners, who say what their homes are worth, not from sale prices.
Yes, mostly at Fireclay and near the stations. The city's plan counts about 2,200 new homes at Fireclay since 2000, and the planning commission approved 76 townhomes at Cottonwood Galleria, 4998 South Galleria Drive, on April 2, 2026. The record names no builder.
It is a check a lender runs on the whole condo or townhome project, not only on your loan. Each project goes through its own review, so ask whether a project has cleared it before you fall for a floor plan.
Start with the furnace, the wiring and the plumbing. Many of Murray's brick ramblers and split-levels date from the 1940s to the 1970s, and updates differ from house to house.
It can be. Trains, the freeways and the hospital add noise to some nearby blocks. Walk the block at rush hour before you write an offer, and visit the platform at commute time.

Referral disclosure. Outside Southern Utah, I connect home sellers and buyers with partner agents I trust in their area. If you choose to work with an agent I refer, that agent's brokerage pays my brokerage (Real Broker, LLC) a referral fee. The fee comes out of the agent's compensation; it is not an added cost to you. You are always free to choose any agent you wish, and using a referred agent is never required.
