Starter Homes Are Back

As Utah’s Local Home builder, At Nilson Homes, we have always taken pride in being a part of the vibrant Utah community. We deeply care about the future of our state, especially when it comes to the housing challenges that our families are facing today. The current affordability crisis has made it difficult for our children and future generations to stay close to home, often forcing them to seek opportunities out of state. We believe that every family should have the chance to live, work, and grow right here in Utah.

In response to this growing concern, Nilson Homes is taking proactive steps by introducing starter homes to our communities. These homes are designed with affordability in mind, offering an opportunity for first-time buyers, young families, and individuals to stay in the communities that they love without compromising on quality. Our goal is to provide a path to homeownership that supports the economic well-being of our families while strengthening the fabric of our local neighborhoods.

Who Can Buy Starter Homes
Anyone can buy a starter home, but there are important guidelines in place to ensure these homes remain accessible to those who truly need them. Our starter homes are deed-restricted and must be owner-occupied for the first 10 years, meaning they cannot be used as rental properties during that time. While owners are free to sell their homes at any time, the new buyer must also adhere to the owner-occupancy requirement for the remainder of the 10-year period.
To further support our community, we’ve created a priority access period for first-time homebuyers, teachers, and emergency medical services (EMS) personnel. This gives these vital members of our community the first opportunity to purchase these homes before they are made available to the general public. We believe this approach will help create stability and long-term investment in our neighborhoods, ensuring that those who serve and sustain our communities have access to affordable housing options.

Why Home Ownership

What did your first home do for you?

Why Home Ownership Matters
Owning a home has long been seen as a key part of the American Dream. Purchasing your first home is a significant step for you and your family towards a better quality of life, enhanced educational opportunities, and overall financial stability.
The Challenge
Despite the clear benefits of homeownership, many Utahns find this dream increasingly unattainable. Data from the U.S. Census Bureau shows that the size of single-family homes in Utah has increased by over 60% since the 1970s, making Utah’s homes the largest in the nation. Larger homes come with higher price tags, with costs far outpacing wage growth in the state.
