What Your Home Is Worth
An automated estimate does not know which side of I-15 you are on. A real number, and the reasoning behind it.
Why the website number is usually wrong here
An automated estimate works from square footage, bedrooms and whatever sold nearby. In most of the country that gets close enough to be interesting. In these three towns it is frequently wrong by a six-figure margin, and the reasons are specific rather than general.
Farmington is two markets split by I-15. Cave Hollow east runs roughly $550,000 to $1M. Chestnut Farms and its neighbours west run $1M and up. An algorithm pulling comparables by distance prices one against the other because on a map they are barely a mile apart. Some Cave Hollow addresses also read as west addresses even though the neighbourhood sits east of the freeway.
Kaysville has a corner that trades separately. The southwest is large homes on large lots, $1M to $2M and above, and the town is not big enough for distance to separate it from ordinary suburban stock minutes away. Lot size does more work in a Kaysville number than almost anywhere nearby.
Centerville breaks the county rule of thumb. Prices are supposed to climb toward Salt Lake, which would put Centerville above Farmington. Last year it came in nearly $100,000 below. An agent or an algorithm applying the rule overshoots badly.
What the three towns actually did
Over the twelve months to September 2026, single family only:
Farmington: 166 sales, median $749,950, median 31 days, 45 sales above $1M, top sale $3,400,000.
Kaysville: 275 sales, median $655,000, median 28 days, 52 sales above $1M, top sale $2,485,000. Homes between $1.5M and $2M sold in a median of 9 to 12 days across 15 sales.
Centerville: 98 sales, median $650,000, median 38 days, 12 sales above $1M, top sale $5,500,000.
Those are towns, not houses. A median tells you where the middle of a market is and almost nothing about a specific property, which is the entire reason this page exists.

How I put a number on a house
I look at what sold in your actual pocket of your actual town, in your price tier, recently enough to matter. Then at what is on the market right now, because that is what your buyer is comparing you against rather than what closed in spring. Then I give you the number and the reasoning, and you are free to argue with either.
On the institutional side of my business I have been recognised as the most accurate pricing agent by the largest asset management company servicing Utah, at 97% accuracy between my valuation and the final sale price. That work is for banks and asset managers who have no feelings about the house at all, only about whether the number holds.
Which means I will sometimes tell you a number you do not want. An over-priced listing burns through the weeks when a home gets its most attention and then takes a reduction that signals weakness to everyone watching. That costs more than starting correctly.
It is free, and it commits you to nothing
Plenty of people get the number, decide the timing is not right, and I hear from them a year or two later. That is a perfectly good outcome and it is most of why I do them.
What people usually do with the number: discover their equity is larger than they thought, particularly in Cave Hollow, and start looking at trading up. Or find that moving to less house is more affordable than they assumed, which is downsizing. Or confirm they are ready, which is selling your home.
Occasionally the number comes in under what is owed. That is a different conversation and not one to put off: short sale and pre-foreclosure.
By town
Each town has its own trap and its own page: Farmington, where the freeway decides the number; Kaysville, where the pocket matters more than the town; and Centerville, where the county rule of thumb misleads.
Tell me about your home and I will get you a real number. The main page covers how I work, and the selling process has the sequence if you are ready to move.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is your number different from the website's?
Automated estimates pull comparables by distance, and all three of these towns have boundaries that distance does not respect: the I-15 split in Farmington, the southwest corner in Kaysville, and Centerville pricing below Farmington despite being closer to Salt Lake.
Is the valuation really free?
Yes, and it commits you to nothing. A fair number of people get the number, decide the timing is wrong, and I hear from them a year or two later.
How accurate are you?
On the institutional side I have been recognised as the most accurate pricing agent by the largest asset management company servicing Utah, at 97% accuracy between valuation and final sale price. Asset managers have no feelings about the house, only about whether the number holds.
What are homes selling for around here?
Over the twelve months to September 2026: Farmington's single-family median was $749,950, Kaysville's $655,000 and Centerville's $650,000. Those describe towns rather than houses, which is why the valuation exists.
Will you tell me a number I do not want to hear?
Sometimes, yes. An over-priced listing burns the weeks when a home gets its most attention and then takes a reduction that signals weakness to everybody watching. That costs more than starting correctly.
