Between January and June, the median price of a primary home sold in Vermont was about 4% lower than it had been in 2013. Statewide, the median price dipped to $192,250 from $200,000 in 2013.
The price decline was confined to 5 counties in northwest and central Vermont, as shown on the map below. Tiny Essex also saw a drop, though its small housing stock means it sees more frequent fluctuations.
The number of primary homes sold in the first half of the year was virtually unchanged between 2013 and 2014.
