The Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA) announced today the promotion of Deborah Flannery to Deputy Executive Director, a new leadership role created to support the Agency’s rapid growth in housing investments and mission impact statewide.

The 2026 Statewide Housing Conference is scheduled for November 18^th at the Doubletree Conference Center in South Burlington, VT. This is the largest biennial housing-focused event in Vermont.

In addition, Vermont has a state-funded housing tax credit for rental and for-sale affordable homes. Both of these types of housing tax credits are administered by Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA). 

According to recent data published by VHFA on HousingData.org, the median sales price of a primary home in Vermont increased by 7% annually from 2000-2025, reaching $379,000.
