Searching for St. George home builders turns up a lot of directories and not many answers. You want to know who is building near you right now, and what it costs to start.
So we went to the source. On November 9, 2026, we checked each builder’s own website for its Washington County communities and published prices. Each one is linked so you can check our work.
Short answer: Cole West and Ence Homes each listed eight selling communities in Washington County on November 9, 2026, the most of the St. George home builders we checked. Ivory, Holmes and Visionary follow. Published starting prices ran from $299,900 to $1.1 million.
How did we rank these St. George home builders?
We ranked by footprint. That means the number of Washington County communities each builder showed as selling on its own website on November 9, 2026. Coming-soon communities aren’t counted, and ties are listed alphabetically. This is not a quality ranking, because we can’t verify build quality or reviews.
It isn’t every builder in the county, either. And a “from” price usually leaves out lot premiums and upgrades.

|---|---|---|---|
| Cole West | 8, plus 1 coming soon | Washington, Hurricane, Santa Clara, St. George | $369,900 to $1.1 million |

How do you choose between St. George home builders?
Start with the city and your budget. Then compare what a model home won’t show you: the contract, the warranty and the strings on any incentive.
- Ask what the “from” price includes: lot premium, landscaping, fencing, window coverings and appliances.
- Ask for HOA dues and what they cover.
- Get the warranty booklet before you sign.
- Check whether the incentive requires the builder’s lender or title company.
- Visit the lot at 3 p.m. in summer if you can. The model has the air conditioning running. The backyard doesn’t.
Builders write their own purchase contracts, so have a real estate attorney review yours. For a statewide view, see Homie’s list of top home builders in Utah.
Is new construction or resale the better buy in St. George?
Neither wins every time. New construction brings a warranty and builder incentives. Resale brings mature landscaping, finished streets and a seller you can negotiate with directly.
Resale buyers also have room right now. In the Utah Association of Realtors September 2026 Washington County report, the median sale price was $499,495, down 3.6% from a year earlier. Supply reached 6.0 months.
So builders and resale sellers are competing for the same buyers. Homie’s guide to new construction vs resale in Utah compares the two. Also see Is St. George a buyer’s market right now?
What incentives are St. George home builders offering right now?
Mostly lower rates or closing-cost help tied to a preferred lender. The Freddie Mac 30-year average was 7.18% on November 5, 2026, so builders are competing on rate. Offers shown on November 9:
- Cole West: 4.99% on select adjustable-rate loans through NFM Lending, for contracts from October 16 closing by December 31, 2026.
- Fieldstone: a 2-1 buydown on select homes, 3.99% then 4.99%, then 5.99% (6.135% APR).
- Perry: up to $30,000 toward closing costs or a lower rate with its preferred lender, per Perry Homes Southern Utah.
- Visionary: up to $5,000 with its preferred lender, per its incentives page. Select quick move-ins also get a 4.99% starting rate on a 7/6 ARM.
- Holmes: holiday savings on limited homes closing by December 31, 2026.
Read the fine print, because an adjustable rate or a buydown steps up later. Ask a loan officer to compare Loan Estimates side by side.
Can you bring your own agent to a St. George model home?
Yes. The sales rep in the model home works for the builder, while your agent works for you on price, upgrades and the contract.
The National Association of Realtors consumer guide says you’ll sign a written buyer agreement, and compensation is negotiable. Before your first visit, ask how the builder wants your agent introduced. For more, read whether you need an agent for a Utah new build, or buy with a Homie agent.
Do you need an inspection on a brand-new home?
It’s optional, and plenty of buyers get one anyway. City inspections check code, while your inspector checks the work for you. Common visits are pre-drywall, before the final walkthrough and before the first warranty year ends. Homie’s home inspection checklist for buyers covers what to look for.
How do you check a builder’s Utah contractor license?
Search the builder’s name in the state’s Utah License Lookup and Verification tool before you sign. The Utah Division of Professional Licensing links to it as its license verification tool.
Use the legal company name from the contract, not the brand on the sign. They often differ.
What does water mean for new homes in Washington County?
Water shapes how the county grows. The Washington County Water Conservancy District says the Virgin River watershed is reaching full development. Meanwhile, the population is projected to more than double by 2060.
The district reports 2025 water use of 145 gallons per person per day. It also offers reduced impact fees for developments that meet its Ultra Water Efficiency Standards. So ask the builder and HOA what landscaping is allowed before you plan a lawn.

Quick answers
What does a Utah new home warranty cover?
Whatever the builder puts in writing, plus any protections in your contract and Utah law. Workmanship, systems and structure often have different time limits. So get the warranty booklet before you sign. Read Homie’s guide to what a Utah new home warranty covers, and have a real estate attorney review the terms.
Are there custom home builders in St. George, Utah?
Yes. Ence Homes advertises custom design alongside its communities. However, for a custom home on your own lot, you’d usually hire a licensed general contractor. The Southern Utah Home Builders Association directory lists local member contractors. Check any name in the Utah license lookup before you sign anything.
Why do Desert Color and Divario show up under several builders?
They’re master-planned communities with more than one builder. On November 9, 2026, Holmes and Visionary both listed homes at Desert Color. Visionary, Fieldstone and Lennar all listed homes at Divario. That lets you compare builders a few streets apart. Still, a master-planned community can have its own HOA rules, so ask each builder for the same documents.
Can you negotiate with a St. George home builder?
Often, though not always on the base price. Ask what can move: the lot premium, upgrades, closing-cost help or the rate. Several November 2026 offers target quick move-in homes or year-end closings. Then ask a loan officer which option helps your payment most.
The bottom line
St. George home builders in 2026 range from $299,900 at Red Trails in Washington to $1.1 million at The Club. The right builder comes down to the city, the contract and whether an incentive beats a plain price cut.
