This week’s list has range.
A luxury Salt Lake home with nearly $300K in modeled upside. A Logan pick with a full 30% upside gap. And several beyond the Wasatch that feel stronger than the current ask.
Here are 12 Utah listings where the gap between price and potential stood out this week.
Upside = how much more value a home could reasonably have today, based on similar homes and current demand. Sometimes it takes some vision to see the potential with upgrades, sometimes the house is just currently undervalued.
$1,800,000 · 6 bd · 3 bath · 4,256 sqft · Upside +$298K (16.6%)
2070 E BROWNING AVE, SLC
The biggest upside dollars on this week’s list. Rare for a home at this price point to still show this much room, especially when it already has the design, location, and presence buyers usually pay full freight for.
Pretty photos are nice. So is immediate upside.
WASATCH STANDOUTS
1160 Sunburst Ln, Midway
$1,100,000 · 5 bd · 4 ba · 3,030 sqft · Upside +$186K (16.9%)
Midway charm usually comes with a premium baked in. This one still shows real upside, which is what makes it interesting. Less fixer, more “the market may be undervaluing the full package.”
923 S 1500 E, SLC
$1,000,000 · 3 bd · 2 ba · 2,606 sqft · Upside +$184K (18.4%)
A classic east-side Salt Lake pick with enough upside to matter. Yalecrest rarely feels discounted, so when a home in this neighborhood still has this much modeled room, it earns a closer look.
1860 E Spring Ln, Holladay
$699,900 · 5 bd · 3 ba · 3,030 sqft · Upside +$169K (24.2%)
One of the strongest picks this week. Great area, approachable price point, and the kind of upside gap that suggests the next owner could create a lot of value without needing a miracle.
3061 E Ksel Dr, Sandy
$1,035,000 · 5 bd · 3 ba · 4,055 sqft · Upside +$148K (14.3%)
A big upside number in a polished, high-demand suburb. The main-floor primary, strong existing layout, and partly unfinished basement make this feel like a house where some of the value story is still waiting to be finished.
5502 N Valley View Rd, Lehi
$880,000 · 3 bd · 3 ba · 3,932 sqft · Upside +$143K (16.3%)
The kind of home that quietly makes a lot of sense. Main-floor living, views, and nearly 2,000 sqft of unfinished basement leave plenty of room for the next owner to push value further.
407 E 1700 S, Salt Lake City
$599,000 · 3 bd · 2 ba · 2,336 sqft · Upside +$107K (17.9%)
Good price band, great location, and over $100K in modeled upside. The attached office/commercial space gives it more flexibility than the average bungalow, which is part of what makes it interesting.
WILD CARD
441 S 100 W, PROVIDENCE
$680,000 · 4 bd · 4 ba · 3,459 sqft · Upside +$70K (10.3%)
Not the biggest spread on the list, but one of the most distinctive. A custom “barndominium” with enough personality, flexibility, and future potential to earn a spot no matter what.
NORTHERN UTAH SLEEPERS
The listings farther north that may not get the same attention, but still show some of the most compelling upside in the file.
1757 E 1080 N, Logan
$569,900 · 6 bd · 4 ba · 3,678 sqft · Upside +$171K (30.1%)
The highest upside percentage in this week’s final list. Big lot, strong bones, and enough architectural character to feel like the market may be underpricing the full opportunity here.
1327 N Main St, Farmington
$575,000 · 5 bd · 3 ba · 2,408 sqft · Upside +$102K (17.7%)
The basement apartment is the headline here. Separate entrance, kitchen, and laundry create real flexibility, and listings with usable income potential often have more upside than the asking price captures.
BRINGING THE HEAT
SOUTHERN UTAH
Warm-weather picks where the lifestyle is already there and the pricing may still be playing catch-up.
5968 S Europa Ln, St. George
$413,400 · 4 bd · 3 ba · 2,016 sqft · Upside +$83K (20.1%)
One of the best Southern Utah values in the file this week. Main-level primary, strong livability, and a park directly behind the home make this feel more compelling than the price suggests.
378 N Northstar Dr, St. George
$718,000 · 4 bd · 3 ba · 2,998 sqft · Upside +$111K (15.5%)
Less hidden bargain, more quietly under-credited. The Twin Creeks setting, golf adjacency, and strong backyard lifestyle make this one feel like it may be offering more than the current ask reflects.
A FINAL WORD
Some homes are priced exactly where you would expect.
Some are just expensive.
And then there are the ones where the current ask still leaves room for a smart buyer to win.
These are those listings.
Quick note: estimated upside reflects the midpoint of Stairtop’s modeled upside range. It’s not a promise. It is a much better filter than “has subway tile.”
