Burlington Vermont Real Estate

The Vermont Department of Labor recently released its figures for the month of September 2011 which showed a drop of one tenth of 1 percent in the unemployment figures for our mighty little state. The rate decreased from 5.9% to 5.8%. Compare this statistic to the national figures which are currently reported at 9.1%.

According to RealtyTrac, in the month of September Vermont had the lowest foreclosure rates of any state in the country. Our entire state had 17 foreclosures!! Chittenden County lead the way with 4 followed by Windham, Rutland and Franklin Counties with 3 each. There were new foreclosure filings for every 1 in every 18,485 housing units in Vermont in September. Compare that to Nevada 1 in every 118. Arizona had 1 in every 305. Florida had 1 in every 368 and New York had 4,202.

These numbers suggest Vermont was far from being entangled in the mortgage & foreclosure mess besieging many other states.

For many of you, the season to buy a house has come and gone for 2011 with kids back in school and colder weather and snow on our doorstep. That’s just traditionally how the seasonality of the Burlington VT Real Estate Market cycles.

But this is no typical year! Time to think again!!

Last week, the Federal Reserve announced they were lowering rates, once again, and the result has been a new milepost for mortgage rates. Never before have rates been so low. Forget about when your Mom and Dad or Gramma and Gramps told you about their “unbelievably low home loan they got when they bought their first home”.

TODAY’S VERMONT MORTGAGE RATES FOR A HOME LOAN ARE LOWER THAN THEY HAVE EVER BEEN. SOME RATES ARE UNDER 4%!

Recently, my son returned from college in North Carolina to “pitch in” and help his fellow Vermonters by volunteering to assist those in need and in distress in any way possible. He and I showed up at an anonymous homeowners house in Waterbury VT I’d been helping previously and she led us to a Serbian family across the street from her. There we were essentially gutting the inside of their home to redo everything destroyed by the rising waters from the Winooski River. Hammers, crowbars, dust and debris. Everything all busted up. Clothing. Toys. Carpets. Photos & keepsakes. What a scene!

Displaced. Stressed. And deeply appreciative that we were there with the only intention being to help and be of service. These folks were so humbled and touched by our “showing up”. As were we…

I have been volunteering at the American Red Cross Shelter in Barre Vermont when it was open and secured a local baker in Burlington to donate loaves of his delicious fresh breads to bring with me whenever I went to Waterbury and Barre so I wouldn’t arrive empty handed. When I handed out the bread to random people, I remember one woman hugging me and sobbing in gratitude.

Well okay… Actually it is!

I saw this monster while showing property in Charlotte, Vermont yesterday afternoon. We guessed he must’ve weighed 1,200 pounds. He was enormous and he had quite a set of vocal chords as he beckoned to all who would listen.

Ferdinand Lives!! And he’s in Charlotte!
