How we count

  • Owners are grouped by the owner name on the county roll. A company that is spelled two ways shows as two rows, so a real total can be higher.
  • One parcel is one tax record, so a condo unit counts as a parcel. Only owners with 10 or more parcels are listed.
  • 'Owned by' does not mean 'managed by' or 'rented out'. Many are builders, banks that took a house back and apartment owners.
  • 'Added in 2 years' counts parcels the owner got in the last two years. It does not subtract parcels they sold.
  • We list companies, lenders, builders, public bodies and non-profits only. No private individuals, estates or family trusts are ranked.

Questions

Who are the biggest owners in Salt Lake County, UT?

By parcel count, Salt Lake City Corporation holds 1,336 parcels. The table lists the 25 largest company, lender and builder owners and the largest public bodies and non-profits.

Why are people not listed?

This page is about companies and public bodies. We do not rank private individuals, estates or family trusts by name. County records are public, but a 'biggest owners' list is a story about portfolios, not about people at home.

Does 'owned by' mean 'managed by' or 'rents out'?

No. It means the owner of record on the county roll. Many large owners are builders, banks that took a house back, or condo and apartment companies. A company can own homes through several differently spelled names, so a real total can be higher than the row shows.

How do you count a parcel?

One parcel is one tax record. A condo unit is a parcel, so a company that owns a whole building shows many parcels. The share is that count divided by all parcels in the county file.

I found a mistake. What do I do?

Tell us on the contact page (choose 'Data looks wrong'). Name the owner and what is off, and we will check the county record and fix it.
