What Do Homes Sell for in Federal Heights?

What did homes sell for in Federal Heights this past year?
Homes in the Federal Heights subdivision sold for a median of $2,400,000, across 15 sales. The lowest sold for $1,149,000 and the highest for $3,037,000. I pulled these numbers from my UtahRealEstate.com (MLS) account in October 2026. They cover sales from October 2025 to October 2026.
Median means the middle. Half of the homes sold for more, and half sold for less.
Why is this number so different from the 84103 zip code?
The 84103 zip code covers the Avenues, Capitol Hill and Federal Heights together, so its median, $746,200, mixes condos and small older homes with large houses. The Federal Heights number counts only Federal Heights sales. Its homes are larger, many are architect-built, and the lots are bigger than in most of the Avenues below it. That is why I always say which area a number covers.
Why is the range so wide?
Fifteen sales is a small number, so a few homes can move the middle a lot. The difference between $1.1 million and $3 million in the same neighborhood comes from the house itself: its size, the lot, the view, how much has been updated, and how many stairs it takes to live in it.
Can I use that number to price my home?
No. Your price depends on the homes that are actually like yours. In a neighborhood with only a handful of sales a year, choosing those homes takes care, and sometimes it means looking a little farther out. I explain how I choose them in how I pick the comparable sales for your home.
What would I do if I were thinking about selling?
Get a real number for your own house before you decide anything. I build a written market analysis, the same one I use when someone is about to list, and walk you through how I got there. If you want to talk after that, we talk. If not, you still have a real number.
