The demand for homes in Chittenden County continued through the first half of 2021, increasing by more than 13% over 2020. Navigating the challenges of the global pandemic in 2020, many contemplated their living and employment situations; either relocating, right-sizing, or renovating their home. A modest improvement in the number of properties listed for sale this year (+8%) has not proven enough to satisfy the number of buyers searching for a home.

Many purchasers, facing multiple offers, needed to exercise patience and heed the guidance of their REALTOR before entering into a contract to purchase. In most cases, persistence paid off, and buyers found the home that met their needs.

The median sale price of single-family homes in Chittenden County jumped 18% in 2021, increasing 27% since 2018. Still, homes remain an affordable option over renting, with record-low mortgage interest rates offering the opportunity to build equity.

New construction projects such as South Village and Hillside at O’Brien Farm, both in South Burlington, introduced a variety of much needed, new housing options to the market – including townhomes, single-family homes, carriage homes, and “flats.” Buyers had time to make selections in location, floorplans, and custom finishes while not competing in the frenzied re-sale market. New construction projects throughout the county gave an opportunity for exiting homeowners to use their strong equity position and “right-size” to a new, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance home. Options for new builds are still available with Spring 2022 delivery dates for buyers with flexible timelines.

In northwest Vermont, the strong investor market was driven by low-interest mortgage rates and solid equity positions in existing properties for owners. The number of investment properties coming on the market grew by 127% resulting in double the number of properties sold over the same period last year. 

Many would-be buyers are staying put or returning to the rental market after unsuccessfully writing multiple offers for purchases. As local businesses turn back to hiring and recover from the global pandemic, new employees struggle to find affordable housing options in the area. The vacancy rates remain the lowest in 6 years, at just over 1%. If demand, as expected, remains high for rental housing, the desirability of owning multi-family properties will continue.

Owner-occupied properties offer the opportunity for homebuyers to offset their housing costs with rental income – improving affordability.

The stunning increase in Luxury sales across northwest Vermont and the entire state in 2020 has continued through 2021. Driven by cash buyers from within Vermont, who desire high-end amenities, views, and additional flexible living space, plus out-of-state buyers moving out of metro areas and closer to family – the luxury market grew by 200%.

Luxury home sellers recognized the opportunity to right-size their lifestyle or capitalize on their strong equity position, taking their REALTOR’s advice and listing their homes earlier in the year. A 48% increase in new homes coming to market offered new opportunities for buyers who snapped up properties across the region – predominantly in Chittenden County, which accounted for 81% of the area’s luxury sales.

Internationally, Coldwell Banker agents transact $168 million in daily luxury sales, including more than 32,000 properties sold. Locally, our agents represented clients in 1 out of 3 luxury sales closed in northwest Vermont so far this year. Our agents and our marketing, including best in class domestic and global listing syndication and prestigious publications, are a remarkable force in the arena of high-end real estate.

*For this report, Luxury homes are defined as residential property priced $850,000 or more.

Surrounded by Lake Champlain, Grand Isle County has long been a destination for Vermonters and tourists alike. As lifestyles changed as a result of the COVID -19 pandemic, Grand Isle County proved even more desirable for those able to work remotely. Still a quick drive to Chittenden County, Franklin County, and Burlington International Airport – single-family home sales have increased by more than 77% so far in 2021. Inventory levels proved healthy enough to satisfy new buyers while keeping the pace of the market reasonable at nearly three months from listing to closing. Alburgh accounted for 37% of the homes sold across Grand Isle County. Affordability of this northernmost town, coupled with 34 new homes coming to market, likely contributed to this surge.

The median sales price for a single-family home in Franklin County has reached $267,250 – a 32% increase since 2018. Still, the county remains the most affordable in northwest Vermont. More homes and condos were available for purchase during the 1st half of 2021 than during the same period last year. This offered more options for buyers to consider in their home search – while still needing to be well prepared to act when the right property hit the market. The average days on market (DOM) – from listing closing was only 51 days. St. Albans topped the county in sales by a large margin – followed by Swanton, Fairfax and Georgia. Fairfax, the highest priced town, posted a median sales price 38% above the county average. Our Agents have noted that the multiple offer frenzy has slowed a bit, and the continued closure of the Canadian border has prevented some second home sales.

Land sales in northwest Vermont have nearly tripled so far in 2021 with 174 parcels sold. Limited inventory for existing homes and buyer preferences for amenities, energy-efficiency, and newly envisioned living spaces contribute to this solid growth. While the median sale price across the region dropped slightly to $94,500 – a piece of land in Chittenden County is nearly double. 

You can’t listen to the news without hearing about soaring lumber prices, labor shortages, and supply chain disruptions affecting housing starts nationally. The story is no different in Vermont. The builders that we work with are working diligently to control pricing, manage construction, and deliver beautiful homes timely. A number of options are available for buyers who can manage longer turnaround times and higher costs associated with building – but in the end, low-interest rates, energy-efficiency options, and the ability to customize their dream home make new construction very attractive.

Early 2021 Market Report

Year-round living on Lake Champlain with majestic Adirondack views in Ferrisburgh. MLS# 4840310.

At this time last year, nobody could predict what was in store for our world, our country, or our community in 2020. As we adjusted to the challenges of a global pandemic, the value of “home” took on even greater meaning. Many people began to contemplate whether their current living situation met their evolving needs or desires. Whether considering a first home purchase, right-sizing a current living situation, or fleeing an urban center for the safety of Vermont – buyers drove the market to heights never before seen.

In addition, economic factors, such as low mortgage interest rates and a strong stock market, fueled demand in an already undersupplied market, driving up prices and putting pressure on affordability.

The National Association of REALTORS (NAR) has reported the share of first-time buyers in the market fell to 31% from 33% the year before – the lowest share since 1987. Buying a primary residence is a financial decision, but also an emotional one that involves many lifestyle factors. For most home buyers, the purchase of a primary residence is one of the largest financial transactions they will make. As inventory moves quickly, some never hitting the open market, now more than ever, Buyers need the help of a real estate professional to help them find the right home and negotiate the terms of a sale (including price) in a highly competitive market.

According to NAR, the most common reason cited for selling a home was the desire to move closer to friends and family. After March (the onset of COVID-19), the second reason was that their home was too small. Approximately 21% of working Americans are currently working from home. That, coupled with homeschooling and the desire for more outdoor or recreational space, larger homes are regaining popularity.

The median sales price of a single-family home has increased by 12% over the past 2 years across the region. Prices and demand vary by county and town, as demonstrated in this report. Various national economists predict prices to rise, on average, 4.1% in 2021. As the urban-to-suburban (and rural) trend continues and “climate change refugees” discover the safety of Vermont, we believe that prices in northwest Vermont will outpace the national average.

The outlook for 2021 is continued strong demand from both in state and out of state buyers. Low mortgage interest rates, currently sub 3%, should also continue through 2021. Even with a small adjustment, rates will remain at historical lows giving buyers additional purchasing power.

Sellers’ length of tenure in the home remained at a high of 10 years; historically, this has been six to seven years. Sellers may find 2021 is an ideal time to sell in order to maximize their solid equity position (unprecedented “house wealth”) and the current buyer demand.

The median sale price for single-family homes in Chittenden County increased by nearly 9% in 2020 and 14% over the previous 2 years. Newly listed homes went under contract quickly – many with multiple offers creating upward pressure on pricing in an already undersupplied market.

Many buyers have turned to new construction in communities like Hillside at O’Brien Farm and South Village – both in South Burlington. New builds offer buyers time to make selections in location, floorplans, and finishes while not competing in the frenzied re-sale market. However, supply chain disruptions and increased cost for materials are pressuring builders who want to deliver a high-quality product on time.

With the increase in median sale price comes an increase in the equity position for many homeowners. The time to list may be right for Sellers who have postponed a move to list their home. Showing practices during COVID-19 are efficient and less intrusive then they were pre-pandemic. In most cases, only well-qualified buyers who have viewed homes online – via video and photos – narrowed their search to your home will physically enter your property. Many qualified buyers are waiting for the right property to hit the market; so savvy sellers, with guidance from their agent, will list their home now and not wait until the spring.
