Two Salt Lake City Condos, One Limited-Time Lender Credit

Owning a home builds something renting never will: equity that's yours to keep. Every payment chips away at a mortgage instead of a landlord's bottom line, and over time that adds up to real, tangible ownership. If you've been waiting for the right moment to make that move, here are two Salt Lake City condos worth a look, plus a lender incentive that can help offset your closing costs.

THE CORNELL, 101 S 600 E #5 (MLS #2181440)

Priced at $299,900, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo sits inside one of Salt Lake City's historic buildings, built in 1901. The character is all still here: detailed woodwork, original hardwood floors, ornate light fixtures, and intricate radiators that give the space real warmth and history. Recent updates bring it into the present without losing that charm, including a refreshed kitchen and bath, in-unit laundry, and a new evaporative cooler. The building's HOA has also recently replaced the roof and boiler, so major building systems are freshly handled. Pets are welcome, and property taxes run about $1,810 a year.

MARMALADE SQUARE, 650 N 300 W #147 (MLS #2183889)

Listed at $280,000, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers roughly 826 square feet, including a full dining room and in-unit laundry. What sets this unit apart from others in the complex is its outdoor space: an extra-large deck and patio area with additional storage, ideal for evening sunsets or weekend get-togethers. Residents also have access to a community pool, gym, and dog park, with quick freeway access and a short trip to downtown. Property taxes run about $1,520 a year, and the HOA is $330 a month.

A LENDER CREDIT TOWARD YOUR CLOSING COSTS

Both of these listings currently come with a limited-time offer from Houzd Mortgage: a lender credit equal to 1% of your loan amount when you finance through them, up to $2,999 for The Cornell and up to $2,800 for Marmalade Square. That credit can go straight toward your closing costs, meaning more of your savings stays in your pocket at the table.

Not all borrowers will qualify, and the offer is subject to credit and underwriting approval. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice, the credit isn't eligible on down payment assistance or non-QM loans, and it isn't a commitment to lend. Property taxes and homeowners insurance aren't included. Houzd Mortgage NMLS #888979; Carter Campbell NMLS #918947.
