SANDY, Utah — Luxury home sales in Utah reached an all-time high in 2025, with one in every 10 homes selling for $1 million or more, according to data from UtahRealEstate.com.
In 2025, a total of 39,791 homes were sold statewide. Of those, 3,992 properties sold for $1 million or more — representing 10% of all home sales. Million-dollar sales increased 13% from 3,527 luxury transactions in 2024. Compared to a decade ago, $1 million-plus sales have surged nearly 700%. Homes that sold for $1 million or more in 2025 had a median sales price of $1.425 million.
“Wealthy transplants and several years of strong home-price appreciation are fueling Utah’s million-dollar home sales,” said Scott Colemere, president of the Salt Lake Board of Realtors® and a Realtor® with Colemere Realty. “Although luxury home sales increased, the majority of homes sold in 2025 (65%) were priced under $600,000.”
Several factors are contributing to the continued rise in luxury sales, including:
- Utah has experienced significant home price appreciation, with prices increasing 41% over the past five years, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency. As a result, many homes previously priced around $700,000 or more have crossed the $1 million threshold due to appreciation alone.
- Utah continues to attract higher-income buyers from other states, particularly California, increasing demand in the luxury segment.
- The state’s strong economy and sustained job growth have expanded the pool of buyers able to afford higher-priced homes.
- Utah’s lifestyle appeal — including access to ski resorts, national parks, and year-round outdoor recreation — continues to draw affluent buyers.
Luxury homes also moved slightly faster in 2025. The typical million-dollar home spent 44 days on the market, down from 47 days in 2024.
