Cedar City, UT Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 301 closed sales in Cedar City over the last six months, with a median closing price of $399,900. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $315,000 and $537,605. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. Across the 300 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $178 and $267 per square foot.

The Cedar City angle

Across 301 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months in Cedar City, the median closed sale price was $399,900, and the middle half of sales closed between $315,000 and $537,605. That spread is close to typical for the markets we track, so the median is worth knowing but not worth leaning on: it will orient you, and it will not price a specific address. The two halves of the band are near enough in size that the distribution is not tilting your estimate much either way, which is good news for straightforward comp work. Pull a small set of closed sales that match your subject on the things that drive its value in Cedar City, and check that your conclusion sits sensibly inside the quartile band before you commit. Tracked closings here are thinner than in most markets we cover, so keep the filter list short.

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. As of August 2026, the public scoreboard showed 3.26% median error across 12,516+ graded closings. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
