Fixer Upper Homes for Sale in Toquerville, Utah
Toquerville sits just off I-15 between Hurricane and Anderson Junction, about 20 minutes north of St. George and ten minutes from Zion's west entrance at La Verkin. It's one of the older settlements in Washington County — founded in 1858 — and that history shows up in the housing stock. Buyers hunting fixer uppers here are typically looking at mid-century block homes along the original townsite, 1970s and 80s ranchers on larger irrigated lots, and the occasional pioneer-era adobe that needs serious work. With Southern Utah's dry climate, structures tend to hold up better than they would on the Wasatch Front, which is one reason rehab projects pencil out for both owner-occupants and investors flipping for the St. George market.
The trade-off is inventory. Toquerville's population is small, turnover is slow, and most newer construction goes up on the benches above town rather than in the historic core where the project homes live. When a true fixer does hit the MLS, it tends to move quickly — especially anything with water shares, a workable septic, or a lot big enough to add a shop or ADU. Pricing varies widely depending on condition, acreage, and whether the seller has already pulled permits for any work.

Common questions
About fixer upper homes in Toquerville.
What counts as a fixer upper in Toquerville? ▾
Most agents use the term for homes that need more than cosmetic updates — think dated kitchens and baths, older HVAC or roofs, outdated electrical, or properties that have sat vacant. In Toquerville you'll also see older farmhouses on large lots near the historic core where the structure is sound but finishes are 30+ years behind. True teardowns are rare; most listings here are livable while you renovate.
Are there many fixer uppers on the market in Toquerville? ▾
Inventory is thin. Toquerville only has about 1,600 residents and turnover is low, so fixer uppers usually come up a handful at a time. Older homes cluster along Toquerville Boulevard and the original townsite near the LDS chapel, while newer construction dominates the benches. Setting up an MLS alert is the realistic way to catch them.
What kind of financing works for a fixer upper here? ▾
FHA 203(k) and Fannie Mae HomeStyle renovation loans both work in Toquerville and roll purchase plus rehab into one mortgage. Conventional with a separate construction draw is another route if the home is currently uninhabitable. Hard money is common for investor flips given how quickly Washington County properties tend to resell once updated.
Does Toquerville have water shares or irrigation rights tied to older properties? ▾
Yes, and this matters. Many of the older lots in town carry Toquerville Irrigation Company shares used for outdoor watering, separate from culinary water. When you buy a fixer upper on a larger parcel, confirm whether shares transfer with the deed — they add real value and keep landscape water costs down during the long Southern Utah summer.
What should I budget for a renovation in this part of Washington County? ▾
Trades are tight across the St. George metro, so expect $90–$150 per square foot for a full interior remodel and more if you're touching the roof, windows, or HVAC. Permits run through Toquerville City, and septic work on the rural lots can add $15–$25K. Get bids before you write an offer — the gap between cosmetic and structural work is where deals go sideways.
Is it worth fixing up versus building new nearby? ▾
It depends on the lot. Toquerville's older parcels are often a quarter-acre or larger with mature trees, irrigation, and views toward Pine Valley Mountain or the Hurricane Cliffs — things you can't replicate in a new subdivision. If the bones are solid, renovating usually pencils out better than buying a new build in nearby LaVerkin or Hurricane at today's prices.
