Probe REALTORS, Inc.

The company is headquartered in Salt Lake City, and its Washington County presence on Telegraph Street in Washington is a branch of that operation rather than a locally founded firm. It handles residential, commercial and investment property.

Statewide firm, local desk

Firms headquartered up north opened southern offices as Washington County grew, and Probe REALTORS is one of them. The practical effect for a client is a larger agent network to refer within — useful if you are selling in Salt Lake and buying in Washington, or the reverse, which is one of the most common moves in this market — with local agents handling the transaction itself.

The setting

Washington city adjoins St. George on the east and has absorbed a large share of the county’s new subdivisions, spreading up into Coral Canyon and Green Springs and south across the Washington Fields. Reading outward from the door, the nearest communities in our directory are Washington, Sienna Hills and Green Spring.

The primary-residence exemption

Utah taxes a primary residence on 55% of its market value; a second home, a nightly rental or a vacant lot is taxed on the full amount. The practical effect is that two identical houses on the same street can carry very different tax bills depending on how they are occupied — a meaningful gap in a county where second homes are common. Buyers moving here from out of state routinely budget from the wrong number. Whoever you work with at Probe REALTORS, Inc. should flag which category a property falls into, and our guide to St. George property taxes explains how the exemption is claimed.
