Kanab is a 4-season destination, and there is no better place to call home. Kanab’s central location and temperate climate (an average 256 sunny days per year) make it an ideal base camp for year-round exploration of canyon country. Average July high/low is 90/56F and average January high/low is 47/21F. Typically, Kanab gets an average annual rainfall of 19 inches, and has an elevation of 4,970 ft. 

Because Kanab gets to enjoy 4 seasons, you as a resident get a little taste of each! Winters are typically very mild, when it will snow in town but be melted within 24 hours. The leaves changing in Kanab are beautiful during the fall, and the blossom shows in the spring take your breath away!

One of the most common refrains that has come out of the very hot 2020 real estate market is the message that this is a perfect time to sell a home. Record low interest rates combined with a low inventory market and a shortened spring market means that demand is high and, in many areas, homes are selling for prices well above asking with multiple offers. Of course, the other side of that equation is that the homeowners who are selling those homes may be unsure about how and where to find a new home on the other side of the closing table. After all, unless they are relocating to a previously purchased second home, these sellers may find themselves competing with other eager buyers on their new home purchase. How can you buy a home in a low inventory market and improve your odds of finding...

Kanab, UT is a little undiscovered piece of paradise. If you’re thinking about buying a home in the beautiful state of Utah, specifically Kanab, you will find that it is one of the highest residential home markets in the country. Purchasing a home can be a lengthy and complex process. The average home costs around $302,100 *according to RealtyPro MLS*. Besides the down payment, which is usually 15-20% of the selling price, there will be closing costs. If you own a home in your former location the sale of that home needs to be completed as well. Once you have purchased and moved into your new home, there will be utility and maintenance costs as well as property taxes and home insurance that will contribute to your cost of living. Don’t let all of that scare you though, because...
