Homes Under $300,000 in Brian Head, Utah

At this price point, expect a studio or one-bedroom condo, typically between 400 and 700 square feet, in a complex like Cedar Breaks Lodge, Grand Lodge, or one of the older Aspen-style buildings near the lifts. Detached cabins almost never fall under $300K in Brian Head. Many of these units come furnished and are already set up as short-term rentals.

Yes, Brian Head is one of the few Utah mountain towns where nightly rentals are broadly permitted, and most condos in this price range sit in HOAs that allow them. Some buildings have on-site rental management. Check the HOA docs for any minimum-stay rules and confirm the town's current STR registration requirements before closing.

HOA fees in Brian Head are heavier than most Utah buyers expect, often $400 to $700 per month for condos under $300K. Dues usually cover heat, water, sewer, trash, snow removal, exterior maintenance, and sometimes cable or internet. That's a big reason units stay affordable up front — the building handles the brutal snow load and heating costs.

It can be. Many lenders require a minimum square footage (often 500 sq ft) and a condo project warrant, and non-warrantable buildings with heavy rental concentration may push you into a portfolio or second-home loan with 20-25% down. Working with a lender who has closed deals in Brian Head specifically will save headaches.

If the unit is a second home or rental (which most are), it's taxed at the non-primary rate, roughly 1.0-1.15% of assessed value in Iron County. Budget around $2,500 to $3,500 per year. Only owners who actually live there full-time qualify for the primary residence exemption that cuts the taxable value by 45%.
