Investment Properties for Sale in Enoch, Utah
Enoch sits just north of Cedar City in Iron County, about 250 miles south of Salt Lake and 170 miles north of Las Vegas. The town has roughly 8,000 residents, a mix of working families, SUU faculty, and retirees who wanted Cedar City's amenities without the in-town density. For investors, that demographic mix matters: rental demand here is driven less by tourism than by Southern Utah University students, traveling nurses at Cedar City Hospital, and workers tied to the Cedar Valley industrial corridor. Single-family rentals on quarter-acre to full-acre lots are the dominant inventory, and most sit on Enoch's municipal water with septic still common on the outskirts toward Midvalley and the old Enoch townsite.
Price points generally run below Cedar City proper, with three-bedroom homes often trading in the $350K–$475K range and newer builds in subdivisions like Parkview and Stratford Park pushing higher. Long-term rents typically land between $1,700 and $2,400 depending on size, garage, and yard. Short-term rental rules are tighter than what you'll see in Washington County — Enoch does not have a tourism-driven STR market, so most investors here run 6- to 12-month leases. Property taxes through Iron County are low compared to the Wasatch Front, which helps cash flow on financed deals. Browse the active investment-candidate listings below to see what's currently on the market, and filter by lot size or garage count if a specific tenant profile is on your mind.

Common questions
About investment properties in Enoch.
Does Enoch allow short-term rentals like Airbnb? ▾
Enoch City does not have the permissive STR framework that places like St. George or Springdale use. Short-term rentals are restricted in most residential zones, and there is no established nightly-rental market here. Investors almost always operate on long-term leases of six months or more.
What kind of rent can I expect on a single-family home in Enoch? ▾
A typical three-bedroom, two-bath home in Enoch rents for roughly $1,700 to $2,100 per month, while four-bedroom homes with a two-car garage often reach $2,200 to $2,400. Newer construction in Parkview or near Minersville Highway tends to pull the top of that range.
Who are the typical tenants in Enoch? ▾
The tenant pool is mostly SUU students who want quieter housing outside Cedar City, traveling medical staff working at Cedar City Hospital, and families tied to local trades, education, and the Iron County government. Vacancy is generally low because new construction has not outpaced demand.
Are properties on septic or city sewer? ▾
It depends on the area. Newer subdivisions inside Enoch's developed core are on municipal sewer, while older homes on larger lots toward the eastern and northern edges of town are often on septic. Verify on the listing or with the seller's disclosure, because septic adds inspection steps and long-term maintenance budgeting.
How do property taxes in Enoch compare to other Utah investment markets? ▾
Iron County's effective property tax rate is among the lower ranges in Utah, typically running well under 1% of assessed value on owner-occupied homes and slightly higher on non-primary residences. That tax treatment — non-primary properties are assessed at 100% rather than the 55% owner-occupied rate — is the single biggest line item to model before buying.
Is buy-and-hold or BRRRR more realistic here? ▾
Buy-and-hold dominates because Enoch's housing stock is relatively newer and distressed inventory is thin. BRRRR-style deals do appear occasionally on older homes near the original townsite, but most investors here are buying stabilized rentals or new builds and holding for appreciation plus modest cash flow.
