The local read
Under $800K is the last stop before custom homes
In shortMurray owners value a typical home at about $507,500 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024), so a cap of $800K is the top of the usual price pages. You will find whole-house remodels, homes toward the east edge and homes with an ADU. Custom homes start on the page above. The MLS feeds the list below, and the highest prices lead.
At $800K you are well past the typical Murray home, which owners value near $507,500 (U.S. Census ACS 2020-2024). Each home here has one thing that sets it apart: a whole-house remodel, a spot toward the east edge, or an ADU.
Whole-house remodels sit on the older streets. Ask the city for the permit record on any larger job. The city runs on to about 1300 East in the middle and to Highland Drive in the south, with Holladay next door. City code allows ADUs. An ADU is a small separate home on the same lot, so ask the city what applies to a lot.
Similar sales can be hard to find at this price, so each house has to be judged on its own. A pre-approval or proof of funds helps you act when a good one appears.
Check the pages on either side. The under $700K page holds homes on the Granite side and near Murray Central at a lower cap. Rebuilt and custom homes begin on the over $800K page. The Murray hub explains the city, and asking me helps narrow your list.

Either way
A price cap is a place to start. Tell me the one feature that matters most, and I will hand it to a partner agent who knows where to look.

What the money buys
Under $800K divides into three kinds of home
Each home here is usually bought for one defining feature, not as a larger copy of a cheaper house. Knowing that feature helps you sort a short list quickly.
Whole-house remodels
These older homes were reworked from top to bottom. Ask for the permit record on any larger job, and ask the city to confirm it.
What you give up: the original layout of an older house. What you get: a house that feels new inside, with permits you can check.
Homes toward the far east edge
The city runs out to about 1300 East around 5300 to 5600 South, and to Highland Drive between 6100 and 6400 South. The southeast tip near Highland Drive is the highest ground, about 4,445 feet. Ask which utility providers serve the address.
The catch: you sit farther from State Street and the train stations. What you get: the highest ground in the city.
Homes with an ADU or room for one
City code allows ADUs, and an ADU is a small separate home on the same lot. What applies depends on the lot, so ask the city before you count on one.
The upside: a second small home on the same lot. The cost: rules that change from lot to lot, and a larger check up front.
Check the Homes for Sale page to see what is for sale now, and use the filters for beds, baths or type.

Buying near $800K
A four-step play
A four-step play
Four steps for homes near $800K
With little open land in Murray, the right home can take patience. The plan is simple: know your standard, keep your funds ready, and judge each home by its own record.
Show you can close
At this budget, a seller wants proof. A current pre-approval letter, or proof of funds if you pay cash, keeps you in the running.
Pick one defining feature
A whole-house remodel, an east-edge home or an ADU. It is rare to get all three. Naming one makes the search shorter.
Let alerts do the watching
Murray has little open land, so nearly every home here is a resale. An email alert means you hear when one posts.
Study sold prices with an agent
Very few similar homes may have sold nearby, so value is hard to guess. A partner agent can check what the remodel, the extra room or the ADU is worth on that street. See the buying process and how to make an offer for the steps.
Quick answers
Under $800K in Murray, answered
Whole-house remodels, homes toward the east edge, and homes with an ADU. Custom builds start on the over $800K page instead. The live feed above shows today's mix.
City code allows ADUs, but what applies depends on the lot, so ask the city first. An ADU is a small separate home on the same lot. Short stays are not allowed in or beside an ADU.
Ask the seller for the permit record, and ask the city to confirm it. A partner agent can also tell you which work usually needs one. Do this before you offer, not after.
To about 1300 East around 5300 to 5600 South, and to Highland Drive between 6100 and 6400 South. A Salt Lake City mailing address does not mean a home is outside Murray, so check the city line.
Ask a partner agent to pull sales from the same street first, then from nearby ones. Then weigh what the remodel, the extra room or the ADU adds. Expect a range, not one number.
The southeast tip near Highland Drive, at about 4,445 feet. The river end of the city is near 4,260 feet, so the ground rises about 190 feet from west to east.

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.
