Location
What it costs each month
$3,022 per month, estimated
A rough estimate on a $450,000 home: 5 percent down, a 30-year loan near 6.5 percent, Utah primary-residence property tax around 0.6 percent, and about $95 insurance. HOA is NOT included, because the MLS does not state whether the reported fee is monthly or annual. Builders frequently offer rate buy-downs that land well below this, which is exactly the kind of thing that is not advertised.
These payment figures are an estimate for budgeting and planning only. They are not a mortgage quote, a loan offer, or a commitment to lend. Your actual rate and payment depend on your credit, loan program, and current market rates. Talk to a licensed mortgage professional for real numbers. Connect with our preferred Utah lender.
The builder
Dry Creek Highlands Towns is built by Ivory Homes. Ask about their current standard finishes, what moves a home from base price to the number you actually sign, and how their build timeline is running right now. Those answers move month to month.

Good to know
Dry Creek Highlands Towns questions, answered
-
How much do homes cost in Dry Creek Highlands Towns?
Homes in Dry Creek Highlands Towns in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County start around $450,000. That is a base price: lot premium, elevation and upgrades are added on top, so the finished cost is routinely higher than the advertised figure.
-
Who is the builder in Dry Creek Highlands Towns?
Dry Creek Highlands Towns in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County is built by Ivory Homes. The builder's sales agent represents the builder, not the buyer. Having your own agent costs the buyer nothing here and is the difference between taking the first contract as written and knowing what the builder will actually negotiate.
-
Is Dry Creek Highlands Towns sold out?
No homes in Dry Creek Highlands Towns are on the MLS right now, but that does not mean the community is sold out. Builders release lots in phases and keep unlisted inventory for their own sales office, so availability here has to be confirmed with the builder directly.
-
What schools serve Dry Creek Highlands Towns?
Dry Creek Highlands Towns is in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County and falls within Salt Lake City School District. Boundaries are assigned by address and get redrawn as new schools open, and a single community can straddle two of them, so verify the assignment for the specific lot with the district before you rely on it.
-
How far is Dry Creek Highlands Towns from the rest of the Wasatch Front?
From Salt Lake City, drive times run to Downtown Salt Lake City in about 5 to 15 min, University of Utah / Research Park in about ~15 min, Salt Lake City International Airport in about ~15 min. Those are approximate off-peak times on the obvious route. Rush hour on I-15 or through Parley's Canyon is materially worse, which is worth driving yourself at the hour you would actually commute.
-
Do I need my own agent to buy in Dry Creek Highlands Towns?
You do not have to have one, but the agent in the Dry Creek Highlands Towns model home works for the builder. Kris Bowen represents the buyer at no cost to you and provides the packet builders do not publish: current incentives and rate buy-downs, lot premiums, released-but-unadvertised inventory, CC&Rs, plat maps, included upgrades and the build timeline. Register him with you on your first visit, because most builders will not let an agent represent you retroactively.
New construction representation
Thinking about Dry Creek Highlands Towns?
The sales agent in the model home works for the builder and is paid by the builder. On most new construction the builder also pays your agent, so having Kris Bowen on your side costs you nothing and changes what you know before you sign: the incentives actually on the table, which lots carry premiums, what is standard versus a design-center upgrade, how the build timeline is really running, and which homes are released but not yet advertised. Bring him on the first visit, because some builders will not pay an agent brought in later.
