South Burlington Market Statistics for Condominiums and Single Family Homes For March 2015
One of the hottest markets in Chittenden County, and one of the overall most active markets in the entire state of Vermont, is South Burlington. It's no surprise that locals and transplants alike flock to the City of South Burlington, located just a few miles to the South of Vermont's largest city, Burlington. South Burlington has some of the best school systems around (although I've told clients time and time again that you really can't go wrong with any of the school systems anywhere in Chittenden County), has great shopping opportunities (Hannafords, Lowes, Trader Joes, Healthy Living, University Mall to name a few), and a fanatastic location near Burlington, Williston, Essex, and easy acces to I-89. Nearly any home in South Burlington can be deemed "well located" when looking at accessibility to shopping, schools, and employers, but you can also find privacy in select areas or homes and condos with a more "urban" feel. Frankly, the City of South Burlington has it all. So, what does all of this mean for market data? Pricing, median sales, etc?
