What Does This Mean For Buyers In St George Utah?
If you are planning on buying a home in St. George, Utah, this year, be prepared for higher than average prices for single-family homes. Inventory levels have not kept up with demand, with less than one month of supply available, there is a lot of competition for homes.
Buyers should also understand that time is not on their side and prices for homes can increase unexpectedly. Buyers should have financing in place and be ready to act when a property is found. In some cases, buyers may need to forego wish list items they are seeking in a home.

We work with you from finding the home, offering a competitive bid, and guiding you through to closing so you can get into your dream home as soon as possible!
