New Listings in Moab, Utah
Moab moves fast when new inventory hits the market. Between the red rock tourism economy, the steady flow of remote workers who fell in love with the Slickrock Trail on vacation, and a housing stock that's genuinely limited by BLM and national park land hemming in the valley, well-priced homes here don't sit long. Grand County's small size means new listings can range from a modest 1960s block home near downtown to a custom build on Spanish Valley acreage with irrigation shares, so checking back often matters more in Moab than almost anywhere else in Utah.
Because inventory is thin — Grand County typically has under a hundred active residential listings at any given time — a fresh listing in a good school zone or with river access can generate multiple offers within the first week. Short-term rental overlay zoning also shapes what shows up: some new listings come with existing STR licenses that are transferable, which changes the math for investors versus owner-occupants. Watch for listings in the Moab city limits versus unincorporated Spanish Valley, since utilities, STR rules, and lot sizes differ block to block. Browse the active new listings below to see what's currently on the market and how long each one has been available.

Common questions
About new listings in Moab.
How often are new Moab listings added to the MLS? ▾
Moab is a small market — the Washington County and Grand County MLS feeds typically see a handful of new residential listings per week during the spring and fall selling seasons, and fewer in the dead of summer when temperatures hit 100+. This page refreshes as soon as agents post new inventory, so checking back every few days is the best way to catch something before it sells.
What price range should I expect for a new listing in Moab right now? ▾
Entry-level homes in town (Mountain View, Walnut Lane area) generally start in the mid-$400s, while larger homes with red rock views or acreage in Spanish Valley and Castle Valley run from the $700s into the low millions. Vacation rental–permitted properties carry a meaningful premium because the city has capped new overnight rental approvals.
Are new Moab listings usually primary residences or second homes? ▾
It's a real mix. Local workforce buyers compete for anything under $500K in town, while a large share of mid- and upper-tier listings sell to out-of-state second-home buyers from Colorado, California, and the Wasatch Front. Knowing which bucket a property falls into matters because nightly rental zoning, HOA rules, and lender requirements differ.
Should I tour a new Moab listing in person or rely on photos? ▾
Photos can be misleading here — a home two blocks off Main Street sounds great until you hear Jeep traffic at 7 a.m., and a Spanish Valley parcel may look flat in drone shots but sit on a steep wash. An in-person visit (or a live video walkthrough with your agent) is worth the trip from Salt Lake or Grand Junction.
Do new listings in Moab sell quickly? ▾
Well-priced homes under $600K and any property with an existing overnight rental license tend to go under contract within 2–3 weeks. Higher-end homes and raw land can sit for several months, especially during the July–August heat when buyer traffic drops. Days on market vary more here than in Wasatch Front cities.
Can I set up alerts for new Moab listings as they hit the MLS? ▾
Yes — set up a saved search with your price range, bedroom count, and any must-haves like a garage, acreage, or nightly rental zoning, and the system will email you when matching listings come on. That's the most reliable way to see new Moab inventory before it's picked over.
