What percent of list price do La Verkin sellers typically get?

Over the trailing twelve months, the average La Verkin seller closed about $8,993 below original list price. On a $447,194 average sale, that works out to roughly 98 percent of asking. A correctly priced home, marketed well, leaves very little on the table here. The price reduction conversation usually starts when the original list price was too aggressive to begin with, which matters more in La Verkin than it did two years ago because active single-family inventory is up 30 percent year over year, and buyers are comparing your home to more alternatives than before.

Q: Are home prices going up or down in La Verkin?

Mostly stable, with the median softening a bit. Single-family closed sales actually grew year over year, from 47 to 53 (up 12 percent), and single-family sold dollar volume rose from $22.9M to $25.4M (up 11 percent). Average single-family sale price held nearly flat at $479,408 (down 1 percent from $486,815). The median dropped from $479,000 to $445,000 (down 7 percent), which reflects more entry-level product moving through the system. Active single-family inventory grew from 85 to 111 (up 30 percent), so buyers have more to compare against. Sellers are still closing at about 98 percent of list. The takeaway: La Verkin is a healthy primary-residence market where pricing the first list right matters more than it did a year ago.

Q: Can Scott Buehler sell my La Verkin home and finance my next one?

Yes. Scott is dual-licensed: listing agent on the home you are selling, mortgage lender on the home you are buying. Never both agent and lender on the same transaction. The buy-side agent is a trusted partner he refers in. One person quarterbacks the whole move.

La Verkin is the value pocket of the Hurricane Valley and the gateway to the Zion corridor. Wasatch Front move-down families, retirees who got priced out of Hurricane and St. George, primary-residence buyers wanting more lot and less HOA, and the Zion-adjacent set who want to be 25 minutes from the park gate. The buyer pool is real and growing. Single-family inventory is up 30 percent year over year and the city is sitting at roughly 5 months of supply, the most balanced market in the Hurricane Valley right now. The listing has to actually show up. Cinematic media, a Coming Soon window, full agent network activation, and an honest read on your specific block.

La Verkin Snapshot

A small town on the Zion corridor, growing on its own terms.

La Verkin is not one market either. The State Street grid plays differently than La Verkin Heights. The orchard pockets play differently than the new south-end subdivisions. Primary-residence pricing plays differently than the rare Zion-corridor STR. The buyer for each is different, and the marketing has to match.

4 buyer types

Value-driven families, retirees, Zion-adjacent, local move-ups

La Verkin's buyer pool is broader than people realize. Wasatch Front move-down families priced out of Hurricane, retirees who want quiet and walkable, Zion-corridor weekenders, and locals already in town trading up to a bigger lot or a bigger view.

La Verkin by the numbers

62 closings.
$27.7 million
in sold volume. 70 day average.

The trailing twelve months in La Verkin tell a steady story. 62 residential closings. $27.7 million in sold dollar volume. The average home sold for $447,194 and the median came in at $435,000, with sellers averaging $8,993 below original list, which works out to roughly 98 percent of asking. The average sold home spent 70 days on market, with a cumulative DOM of 77 days. Single-family closings rose 12 percent year over year and sold volume rose 11 percent, on inventory that grew 30 percent. La Verkin is the most balanced segment of the Hurricane Valley, and the value pitch is still the strongest lever your listing has.

Closed sales

62 Last 12 mo

Residential homes closed in La Verkin over the trailing twelve months. Single-family alone rose 12 percent year over year, from 47 to 53, with rising inventory pulling more buyers into the search.

Median sale price

$435,000 Citywide

Half of La Verkin homes sold above this, half below. Single-family alone runs slightly higher at a $445,000 median. La Verkin's median sits about $83,000 below Hurricane city, which is the value pitch in one number.

Average sale price

$447,194 Citywide

Average is close to the median, which tells you La Verkin's sold curve is tighter than Hurricane's. Without the Sand Hollow upper end, the pricing band is narrower and easier to calibrate.

Sold dollar volume

$27.7M Last 12 mo

Closed dollar volume in La Verkin city alone. Smaller than Hurricane or Washington by a wide margin, but the growth side of the curve. Single-family volume alone rose 11 percent year over year.

Average days on market

70 77 CDOM

Average days from list to under contract on sold homes. Cumulative DOM of 77 days accounts for homes that relisted. Quicker than Hurricane (80) and roughly in line with St. George (66) and Cedar City (71).

Average sale to list gap

$8,993 Below ask

The average La Verkin seller closed about $8,993 under original list, or roughly 98 percent of asking. Tighter than Hurricane's $14,325 gap. Buyers in this band are price-sensitive, but they are also ready to move when the price is right.

Currently active

26 Right now

Residential homes currently listed for sale in La Verkin, with an average list price of $653,142 (skewed by a handful of large-lot and acreage listings). Those are the listings your home competes with the day it hits the market.

Months of supply

5.0 Balanced

26 active listings against a trailing 12-month pace of about 5 sales per month. A balanced market sits around 5 to 6 months. La Verkin is the most balanced corner of the Hurricane Valley right now.

Under contract

65 Last 12 mo

Residential homes that went under contract in La Verkin over the trailing twelve months, with an average list price of $453,718. Real, active buyer demand. The question is whether your home shows up the way those buyers expect.

The honest read

A balanced primary-residence market on a healthy growth path.

La Verkin sold 62 residential homes for $27.7 million over the trailing twelve months. The average closed home spent 70 days on market and sold within about 2 percent of list. That part is healthy. The story underneath is straightforward. Single-family closed sales rose 12 percent year over year (47 to 53) and single-family sold dollar volume rose 11 percent ($22.9M to $25.4M). Average single-family sale price held nearly flat at $479,408 (down 1 percent), and the median softened to $445,000 (down 7 percent) as more entry-level product cleared. Active single-family inventory grew 30 percent, from 85 to 111, which is why the first list price matters more than it did a year ago. The takeaway: La Verkin is a steady primary-residence market with real demand at a real price band. It is not Sand Hollow. It is not St. George. It is a value-driven town with its own buyer pool and the marketing has to match.

A reminder: citywide averages do not tell you what your home is worth. A bench-view home in La Verkin Heights trades on a different curve than a State Street grid bungalow or a Toquerville-border new build. For your specific number, request a valuation below.

Selling in La Verkin

The La Verkin
playbook.

Selling in La Verkin is its own thing. Some of your buyers are Wasatch Front families chasing more lot for the dollar than Hurricane offers. Some are retirees who like the quieter, walkable scale. Some are Zion-corridor weekenders. And a handful are locals already in town trading up the bench or down the grid. Pretending those buyer pools are interchangeable is how listings sit. Here is how I think about it, broken into pieces.

Topic 01

Who actually buys homes in La Verkin

Four distinct buyer pools, each shopping differently. The pitch has to match the buyer.

La Verkin's buyer pool is narrower than Hurricane's, but it is real and surprisingly loyal. A State Street bungalow trades to a retiree from St. George. A Heights view home trades to a Wasatch Front move-down family. Same MLS, different conversations.

Wasatch Front move-down families

Equity sellers from Salt Lake, Davis, and Utah County looking for more square footage and more lot than Hurricane or St. George at this price band. They want yard space, primary-residence subdivisions, decent schools, and proximity to Zion and the lakes. La Verkin lets them stay under budget without compromising acreage.

Retirees priced out of Hurricane & St. George

Buyers in their late fifties through seventies who like the quieter pace, the smaller-town feel, and the walkable scale. La Verkin offers single-level homes in established subdivisions for meaningfully less than Hurricane. Proximity to St. George Regional Hospital matters, but they accept the 25-minute drive.

Zion-corridor & outdoor buyers

La Verkin is the doorway to Zion, Kolob Canyons, and the Virgin River. Some buyers want a primary residence within 25 minutes of the park gate. A small subset want a Zion-adjacent vacation or long-term rental property. STR overlays are very limited here, so the pitch is lifestyle and primary residence, not nightly income.

In-region move-up buyers & locals

Families already in La Verkin, Toquerville, or Hurricane trading up to a bigger lot, a Heights view, or a newer build on the south end. They know the streets, the schools, and the comps. Photos, floor plan, lot size, and finishes win this group. The pitch is condition and price relative to local comps they have been watching for a year.

Topic 02

The neighborhood map

La Verkin's pockets diverge more by lot size and elevation than they do by aesthetics. The price band shifts meaningfully as you move from the State Street grid up to the bench.

A quick read on the pockets I list in most. Your home does not need to be in one of these to work. This is where the buyer attention tends to cluster, and where the marketing strategy diverges the most.

State Street & the historic grid

Walkable to the post office, the city park, and the original downtown core. Older inventory but a buyer pool that loves the character, the mature trees, and the larger original lots. Lot size and yard often outweigh square footage in this pocket. The pitch is small-town walkability and proximity to the Virgin River, not new finishes.

La Verkin Heights & the bench

View-driven homes on the bench above town. Primary-residence buyers who want elevation, sightlines toward the Zion peaks and the Virgin River corridor, and fewer neighbors. Photography and twilight shots matter more here than almost anywhere else in town. This is where the Wasatch Front move-down family typically lands.

The south-end growth pockets

Newer construction and recent resale closer to the Hurricane border and the highway. Family buyers, in-region move-ups, and Wasatch Front relocators wanting newer at a more reasonable price than Hurricane. HOA details and lot orientation belong in the listing description from day one. Positioning your resale against current new construction matters when builders are running incentives.

The orchards & west side

Larger lots, irrigation history, and a more agricultural feel. Some homes sit on a half acre or more, occasionally with mature fruit trees or small horse setups. The buyer wants room, not finishes. The listing has to lead with lot and use, not interior square footage.

Toquerville & Virgin edge

Technically not La Verkin, but most buyers searching the corridor will see these towns in their results. Toquerville sits above La Verkin and trades higher (median around $599,000 over the trailing twelve months). Virgin trades on a different curve entirely. If your home sits near the borders, the listing has to be discoverable across the right city searches.

Topic 03

When the La Verkin market actually moves

La Verkin runs roughly the same calendar as Hurricane and St. George, but with a stronger primary-residence seasonality and a Zion-corridor tailwind in spring and fall.

If you have lived along the Wasatch Front, you assume spring and summer are peak. In La Verkin the curve is different. Summer heat does the opposite of what you would expect, and the Zion-corridor buyer pool follows the park's busy seasons more than the calendar.

Winter (Nov to Feb)

The snowbird arrival window. Las Vegas, California, and Wasatch Front buyers come down for the warmer winters. Showings stay steady, particularly for retiree-target single-level homes. Primary-residence pockets are quieter than spring or fall but still active. The Zion-corridor buyer is mostly absent until late February.

Spring (Mar to May)

The strongest window. The weather is perfect, Zion is at its annual peak, and family buyers are timing the school calendar. Wasatch Front move-down buyers come down to look. Inventory moves quickly. Listing in March beats listing in May because you catch the full window before the heat arrives.

Summer (Jun to Aug)

The slowest stretch. Daytime showings slow down because of the heat, and the Zion-corridor traffic that drives some buyer attention is more about visiting than buying. If you have to list in summer, plan early morning and evening showings and lean into the AC, the shade, and any cooling features your home has.

Fall (Sep to Oct)

The other peak. The weather is perfect again, Zion has its second annual surge, snowbird scout trips ramp up, and the school-calendar pressure is gone but families are still active. Listing in late August lands you right inside the strongest window of the back half of the year.

Topic 04

Pricing it right the first time

La Verkin single-family inventory is up 30 percent year over year. Buyers have more to compare against. The first list price has to be right.

Honestly, the agent who hands you the highest list price at the kitchen table is usually not your friend. They are buying your signature. Then thirty days in, the price-reduction conversation starts.

La Verkin sellers averaged about $8,993 below original list over the last twelve months, roughly 98 percent of asking. Tight, but the context matters: single-family active inventory in La Verkin grew 30 percent year over year, and the city is sitting at roughly 5 months of supply right now, so buyers have substantially more alternatives to compare your home to than they did a year ago. A high opening price gets stale fast in this price band, where buyers are unusually price-sensitive. A correctly priced listing typically gets its strongest showing activity in the first two weekends. Stale listings in La Verkin sell for less than aggressive opening prices, every time.

What I bring to your kitchen table

→ Closed comps from the last 90 days in your specific La Verkin pocket, same product type and lot profile.
→ Active and pending listings I am competing against right now in your price band.
→ Expired and withdrawn listings, so we can see exactly what did not work locally.
→ A pricing band, not a single number. You pick where in that band you want to sit.

Topic 05

Prep, repairs, and what to skip

A La Verkin punch list is shorter than a Hurricane one. AC service, xeriscape, lot tidy-up. Bigger-lot homes get a few extras.

Usually worth it

• Fresh paint in main living areas
• AC service and a clean filter before listing
• Xeriscape touch-up or fresh rock in the front yard
• Lot cleanup: trim trees, clear fence lines, haul off junk
• Updated light fixtures and bulb temperature
• Cabinet hardware swap, deep clean, declutter

Usually skip

• Full kitchen or bath remodels
• Flooring you would not pick yourself
• Replacing a working AC if it passes inspection
• Adding a pool just to sell
• Anything you cannot finish before listing

When I walk a La Verkin property, I will tell you straight: do this, skip that. A Heights view home has different leverage points than a State Street bungalow or a south-end newer build. Every home is its own punch list.

Why list with me in La Verkin

Four reasons it matters who you pick locally.

La Verkin has plenty of agents who will list your home, but not many who understand the difference between a Heights bench-view pitch and a State Street character pitch, or how to position a primary-residence listing against the bigger Hurricane buyer pool next door. Here is the short version of what is different about working with me. Full marketing playbook lives on the Our Marketing page.

Cinematic media on every listing

Professional photography, drone over the Virgin River corridor and the red-rock backdrop in the right light, twilight shots, narrated walkthrough video, Reels and TikTok cuts. Not an upsell. Not reserved for higher price points. Standard.

Washington County agent network

The La Verkin buyer pool is often working with agents based in St. George or Hurricane who only occasionally show out here. The moment your home goes Active, I pull MLS reverse prospecting and personally contact every buyer agent across Washington County with a matching saved search. Your listing lands in the inboxes of agents whose clients are already shopping in your price band.

What La Verkin sellers say

Reviews from across the corridor.

A few words from sellers I have worked with right here in La Verkin and the surrounding pockets.

“We came down from Salt Lake County looking for more lot than Hurricane offered. After three years in our La Verkin Heights home we wanted to size down to a single level. Scott pulled the right comps from our specific bench, set an honest pricing band, and marketed the view shots correctly. Under contract in under five weeks to a Wasatch Front family looking for exactly what we had.”

R. and J. Hansen

La Verkin Heights seller

“Our place was an older bungalow on the State Street side of town and the first two agents we talked to wanted to list it like a generic Hurricane Valley home. Scott understood the buyer wanted character, walkability, and the lot, not granite countertops. He sold us on a fair list price, ran the marketing accordingly, and we were under contract in six weeks to a buyer from St. George who specifically wanted a small-town feel.”

M. Petersen

State Street grid seller

“We were trading up inside La Verkin to a newer place on the south end. Scott was the only agent who actually pulled comps from our specific subdivision, walked us through the right pricing band, and showed up with a marketing plan that fit the local buyer pool. He sold our old place and financed our new one. One person handled the whole move and made it easy.”

Frequently asked

La Verkin seller questions, answered straight.

The questions I hear most often from La Verkin sellers, with answers grounded in actual Washington County MLS data, not vibes.

How long does it take to sell a home in La Verkin?

Over the trailing twelve months, the average sold home in La Verkin spent 70 days on market, with an average cumulative DOM of 77 days. That spans 62 residential closings totaling $27.7 million in sold volume. The city is currently sitting at roughly 5 months of supply (26 active listings against a 5-per-month sales pace), the most balanced corner of the Hurricane Valley. Your specific timeline depends on the pocket, the lot, and the price band. The State Street grid moves differently than La Verkin Heights or the south-end newer construction. I can pull comps for your block and give a calibrated estimate.

What is the median home price in La Verkin, Utah?

The median residential sale price in La Verkin over the trailing twelve months was $435,000, based on 62 closed sales pulled from the Washington County MLS via FlexMLS (5/1/2025 to 5/1/2026). The average sale price was $447,194. Single-family alone closed 53 homes at an average of $479,408 and a median of $445,000. La Verkin sits meaningfully below Hurricane city, which closed at a $518,000 median over the same period.

Are home prices going up or down in La Verkin?

Mostly stable. Single-family closed sales rose 12 percent year over year (47 to 53) and single-family sold dollar volume rose 11 percent ($22.9M to $25.4M). Average single-family sale price held nearly flat at $479,408 (down 1 percent). The median softened from $479,000 to $445,000 (down 7 percent) as more entry-level product cleared. Active single-family inventory grew 30 percent, from 85 to 111. Sellers still closed at about 98 percent of list. The takeaway: La Verkin is a healthy primary-residence market where pricing the first list right matters more than it did a year ago.

Is now a good time to sell in La Verkin?

La Verkin closed 62 residential sales over the trailing twelve months, totaling $27.7 million in sold volume. The average sale price was $447,194 and the median was $435,000. Sellers averaged $8,993 below original list, which works out to about 98 percent of asking. The average sold home spent 70 days on market. La Verkin currently sits at roughly 5 months of supply (26 active listings against a 5-per-month sales pace), the most balanced segment of the Hurricane Valley. Single-family closings actually rose 12 percent year over year. The right question is what your next move looks like and how your home is positioned against the 26 listings buyers are comparing it to.

When is the best time of year to list a home in La Verkin?

La Verkin follows roughly the same seasonal curve as Hurricane and St. George. The strongest listing windows are early spring (March to May) and early fall (late August through October). Spring catches Zion-corridor vacation buyers, Wasatch Front move-down sellers, and primary-residence families timing the school calendar. Fall catches the snowbird scout window and the cooler-weather shoppers. Summer is the slowest stretch because triple-digit heat slows daytime showings. The snowbird arrival window (November through February) is steady but quieter than spring or fall.

What neighborhoods in La Verkin does Scott sell in?

All of them. The State Street and Center Street grid through the historic core, La Verkin Heights and the bench above town, the orchard and west-side pockets, the newer subdivisions on the south end toward Hurricane, and the Toquerville and Virgin edge that often gets bundled into a La Verkin search. Each pocket has its own buyer pool and price band, and the marketing approach is different across them.

Does La Verkin allow short-term rentals?

La Verkin is far less STR-friendly than Hurricane. The city does not have a Sand Hollow-style overlay zone, and new STR permits are tightly limited. Some legacy nightly rental properties exist, but most residential zones do not allow nightly rentals as a permitted use. If your home is a grandfathered STR or sits in one of the limited eligible areas, that has real value for the right buyer and the listing should lead with it. If it does not, the buyer pool is primary-residence and long-term-rental, and the marketing approach is different. I pull the specific zoning and any HOA language for the address before the conversation gets serious.

Can Scott sell my La Verkin home and finance my next one?

Yes. I am dual-licensed: listing agent on the home you are selling, mortgage lender on the home you are buying. Never both agent and lender on the same transaction. The buy-side agent is a trusted partner I refer in. One person quarterbacks the whole move, with one shared timeline instead of two disconnected ones.
