Buy a Home · St. George, UT
Why buyers hire Genuine.
Buying a home is the biggest check most people ever write. We help St. George and Southern Utah buyers find the right home, pay the right price, and avoid the costly mistakes nobody warns you about. Exclusive off-market homes you won't find online, straight answers, sharp negotiating, and a team that tracks every deadline for you.
What You Get
A buyer's agent who's actually on your side.
The listing agent works for the seller. We work for you. Here's what comes with every Genuine buyer.
An honest read on every home
We'll tell you what we see: the overpriced, the overbuilt, the HOA that'll eat your budget. If it's not the one, you'll hear it from us before you're under contract.
Offers built on the comps
Before you write a number, we pull recent sales, days on market, and price history so you know what the home is really worth and how hard to push.
Negotiating that saves you money
Price is one lever. Seller concessions, repairs, closing dates, and inspection asks are the others. We work all of them to protect your bottom line.
Exclusive off-market homes
Some of our sellers want to sell quietly, so their homes never hit Zillow or the MLS. Our buyers see them first. Ask about our exclusive off-market listings. Plus instant alerts the moment new listings hit the market.
New construction, done right
We work closely with local builders and register you before your first visit so you keep your own representation.
Every deadline, tracked
A dedicated transaction coordinator manages every REPC deadline, and our Client Portal works like a pizza tracker for your purchase. You'll always know what's next.
How We Help You Buy
Five steps. No guesswork.
Every buyer consultation follows the same plan, so you know exactly how we'll get you from first search to keys in hand.
- 01Purpose
Your why
Why you're moving, when you need to be in, and what the home has to do for you. Must-haves, deal-breakers, and the budget you're comfortable with, not just the one you're approved for.
- 02Prepare
Your buying power
We connect you with a lender for pre-approval and walk you through the buyer agreement line by line: what we do for you and how we're paid. No fine print surprises.
- 03Search
Your short list
Our exclusive off-market listings, instant alerts on new homes, neighborhood guidance, and tours in person or by video. We'll point out what the photos don't show you.
- 04Offer
Your winning offer
We pull the comps, call the listing agent to learn what the seller cares about, and structure price and terms to win the home without overpaying.
- 05Close
Your keys
Inspection, due diligence, appraisal, and final loan approval, all tracked against your REPC deadlines. We negotiate repairs, keep everyone on schedule, and hand you the keys.
The Genuine Standard
Genuine isn't just the name on the door.
It's the standard every conversation gets held to. Here's what that means when you buy with us.
We'll talk you out of the wrong house, even when it means we keep looking. A short-term loss beats a buyer stuck with a mistake.
JD Reese · Founder & CEO
Your money first
Every recommendation starts with what's best for your wallet and your future, not what closes fastest.
No pressure, ever
We don't rush you into an offer to hit a number. When it's the right home, you'll know, and so will we.
We own it, out loud
Our advice, our mistakes, and our word. If something goes sideways in your deal, you hear it from us first.
You'll never chase us
Constant updates from offer to closing, plus the Client Portal, open 24/7, so you're never left wondering.
Two Ways to Find Your Home
On the market or off it. We've got both.
Most buyers find their home on the open market. Our buyers also get a look at exclusive off-market listings, homes that never show up on Zillow or the MLS.
Shop the open market
Every home for sale in Southern Utah, with an agent in your corner from the first search to closing day.
- Instant new-listing alerts
- Comps and price history before every offer
- Tours in person or by video
- Negotiation on price, terms, and repairs
- Inspection and due diligence guidance
- Transaction coordinator and Client Portal
Get into off-market homes
Some of our sellers want to sell quietly. Their homes never hit Zillow or the MLS, so our buyers get a shot before anyone else.
- Homes you won't find on Zillow or the MLS
- Less competition and fewer bidding wars
- A heads-up as soon as one fits your search
- Private showings on your schedule
- The same comps and negotiating as any other home
What does a buyer's agent from The Genuine Group do for me?
We help you get pre-approved, narrow down neighborhoods, set up instant new-listing alerts, tour homes in person or by video, pull the comps before you offer, negotiate the price and terms, and manage every REPC deadline through closing with a dedicated transaction coordinator and our Client Portal.
Can I see homes that aren't on the market yet?
Yes. Some of our sellers choose to sell quietly as exclusive off-market listings, without putting their home on Zillow or the MLS. Our buyers get access to those homes. Tell us what you're looking for and we'll let you know when one fits.
Do I need to sign a buyer agreement before touring homes?
Yes. Since August 2024, agents working with buyers through the MLS need a written buyer agreement before touring homes. We walk you through it line by line before you sign: what we do for you and how we're paid.
Who pays the buyer's agent?
Commissions are negotiable and not set by law. Sometimes the seller agrees to cover some or all of the buyer agent's fee, and sometimes the buyer pays part of it. We explain the options for each home before you write an offer, so there are no surprises.
Should I get pre-approved before I start looking?
Usually, yes. A pre-approval tells you what you can likely afford and makes your offer stronger to sellers. See our financing page for lenders who know Southern Utah.
Should I bring an agent when I visit a new build community?
Yes, and call us before your first visit. Many builders require your agent to register you on that first visit, or they may not work with your agent later. We work closely with local builders.
Can I buy a home in St. George while living out of state?
Yes. We handle video tours, constant communication, and electronic paperwork, so you can buy from a distance. Plenty of our buyers have bought homes sight unseen.
Will you tell me if a house isn't a good buy?
Yes. If the price is too high, the inspection turns up something serious, or the home just doesn't fit what you told us you need, we'll say so, even if it means we keep looking.
Can you help me buy a home and sell my current one?
Yes. One team handles both, so the timing of your sale and your next purchase lines up. See why sellers list with us or contact our team to plan it out.
Don't take our word for it.
