Many consecutive years of severe drought would harm Wasatch front real-estate.

I wouldn't be worried about it impacting Real Estate prices unless the property

I can't remember a drought Utah didn't recover quickly from.

I've lived here my whole life and agree. What if this one is different?

If you are really concerned sell to someone who will rent it back to you for two

What realistic situation could it get that bad?

Probably not bad enough as other have also pointed out. Brown lawns are no biggy

Yes. Extreme conditions. Nearly everyone on Wasatch Front gone or dead within

What does that do to house values though?

I would be more concerned about a housing bubble in a than water.

Utah still uses 70% of its water for irrigation. There is still plenty of water.

True. Brown lawns and zero-scaping probably aren't economy killers if it got bad

More arid-appropriate landscaping can be attractive if done right.

Parts of California had severe droughts. How did it affect the real estate there?

As mentioned by Charles above, was probably really bad for AG real estate in

If you are going to worry about anything... worry about "the BIG one"

Doubt it. I think the political refugees seeking asylum will only cont to grow

Understand your concern, but I think you are looking too deeply into this. Drought is probably an item that least

A climate shift would limit new development. Prices would skyrocket.
