Homes Under $300,000 in Virgin, Utah
Virgin sits along Highway 9 in Washington County, about 25 minutes from Zion's main gate in Springdale and roughly 40 minutes from St. George. It is a small town of under 800 people, and its housing stock reflects that: few subdivisions, a lot of acreage, and a mix of older manufactured homes, modest cabins, and the occasional new build. Homes under $300K are a real challenge here. Most of Virgin's single-family inventory has traded well above that mark since 2020, so this price band tends to be thin and moves quickly.
What does turn up under $300K is usually a manufactured or mobile home on a small lot, a older cottage needing updates, or a condo or townhome in nearby communities. Buyers should check whether the land is owned or leased, confirm water and irrigation shares through the town or local water company, and ask about septic, since much of Virgin is not on sewer. The setting is high desert at about 3,500 feet, with summer highs in the 100s, mild winters, and red cliffs of the Kolob Terrace and Hurricane Cliffs close by. Many buyers here want a quiet base near Zion, Quail Creek, and Gooseberry Mesa trails, or a lower-cost entry before moving up.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Virgin.
How much inventory under $300K is typically available in Virgin? ▾
Not much. Virgin is a small town of roughly 600 residents tucked along SR-9 between La Verkin and Springdale, and the active MLS count under $300K usually sits in the single digits. Most of what does come up at this price is vacant land, manufactured homes on acreage, or older site-built homes needing work.
What kinds of properties show up in this price range? ▾
Expect a mix of manufactured and modular homes on larger lots, fixer-uppers, and occasionally a small site-built home on a partial acre. Many parcels in Virgin sit on well and septic rather than municipal utilities, which keeps lot sizes generous but adds maintenance considerations.
Can I get a USDA loan in Virgin? ▾
Yes. Virgin falls within USDA Rural Development eligible areas, so qualified buyers can finance with zero down on eligible properties. This is one of the more useful loan programs for sub-$300K purchases here, alongside FHA for manufactured homes that meet HUD foundation requirements.
How far is Virgin from Zion and St. George? ▾
Virgin is about 15 minutes from the Zion National Park entrance at Springdale and roughly 35-40 minutes from St. George. That location is the main reason values have climbed — short-term rental demand from Zion visitors pushes pricing higher than the town's size would suggest.
Are short-term rentals allowed on homes at this price point? ▾
Virgin has specific zoning for nightly rentals, and not every property qualifies. If income potential matters to your purchase, verify the parcel's zoning with the Town of Virgin before writing an offer — some areas permit STRs, others are residential-only, and that distinction directly affects resale value.
Is well and septic common on properties under $300K here? ▾
Very common. Much of Virgin outside the town core relies on private wells and septic systems. Budget for a well inspection, water quality test, and septic pump/inspection during your due diligence — these are standard asks on rural Washington County properties.
