Confirmed via Iron County Board of Realtors directory.
Stratum Real Estate Group is an independent Cedar City brokerage formed in June 2010 when three local brokers consolidated their practices into a single firm. Joel Hilkert is the current Principal Broker. The office at 365 South Main Street sits on Cedar City's primary commercial spine, a few blocks from the Iron County Courthouse and Southern Utah University.
Unlike the franchise-affiliated brokerages in the same market, Stratum operates fully under its own brand and brokerage license. That means no national franchise fees, no template marketing playbook, and full local control over commission structures and agent relationships. For agents and clients who specifically want a non-franchised brokerage in Iron County, Stratum is the most visible independent option.
The firm handles residential resale, land, and small-acreage transactions across Iron, Beaver, and Garfield counties. Web presence is functional rather than polished — the kind of operationally focused site that fits a working independent brokerage rather than a brand-driven one. The Iron County Board of Realtors directory cross-references the firm cleanly, and the Utah Real Estate Commission roster confirms the office.
