Home to the state capital of Montpelier, with Barre being the most populous municipality, the Washington County real estate market is robust and varied. A drop of 10% in homes available for sale failed to meet buyer demand resulting in a 24% decline in closed sales. As a result, the median sale price jumped by nearly 20%. In July, parts of the county sustained damage due to flooding from severe storms. Homes and businesses cleaned up with some, but not all, hoping to rebuild.
Warren, Fayston, and Waterbury posted median sale prices far above the county average of $380,000 largely driven by the vacation and luxury home markets. Barre and Montpelier posted the most closed sales because of the higher population and number of primary residences.
