The first quarter of 2023 was challenging for the housing market in Addison County, Vermont. The county saw a significant drop in the number of new listings, with a decline of around 33% compared to the same period last year. This limited the options available to potential buyers and contributed to an overall decline in sales. In fact, the number of homes sold in the county dropped by approximately 11% year-over-year. The median sold price for homes in Addison County also decreased by around 2% compared to the first quarter of 2022. This is not a reflection of a drop in home values, but more a change in the mix and limited number of properties that closed during this period. Despite these declines, Addison County remains an attractive area for homebuyers due to its scenic countryside and vibrant communities. It will be interesting to see how the market evolves throughout the rest of the year and whether the shortage of available inventory will continue to be a challenge for both buyers and sellers alike.

While Addison County felt a substantial downturn in sales throughout the first half of 2022, it’s important to note that 2021 represented historically high sales. Single family home sales declined 30% to 135 properties sold, and limited condominium units available limited transactions to 9, 40% less than in 2021. New inventory was soft, reflecting a 21.4% decline in single-family homes listed. Despite limited sales, prices appreciated by over 13.6%. Addison County was the beneficiary of interest from out-of-state buyers during the past two years as buyers sought more tranquil areas. The combination of charming towns like Vergennes, Bristol, and Middlebury surrounded by ample recreational, agricultural, and lakeshore property makes the region a desirable primary and second home market.

The real estate market is booming in Addison County, achieving the highest median sale price for a single-family home since our report began six years ago. The number of homes sold increased by 12% – nearly triple the increase across the region. The pace of the market accelerated as well with the average time from listing to close at only 2 months – down from 3 months mid-year. Middlebury, Bristol, Vergennes, and Ferrisburgh topped the county for the most homes sold in 2021, followed closely by Monkton, Orwell, and New Haven. The highest median sale prices were reported in Cornwall, Addison, and Lincoln. Accessibility to Lake Champlain, the mountains, and an easy commute to the greater Burlington area for employment are motivators for buyers. Farm to table dining options, art galleries, and a more rural landscape enhance the quintessential Vermont life experience.
