Q2 2025 Real Estate Market Report: Stowe, Lamoille County, and Waterbury, VT

The second quarter of 2025 continued to reflect the evolving dynamics of the Stowe Area real estate market.

Buyers took significantly longer to transact, with average days on market rising 137%. The list-to-sell price ratio remained high at 97%, only dipping slightly by 0.75%.

The condo market, by contrast, surged in Q2. Sales rose nearly 89%, and new listings more than doubled, up 116%. Average sold price, $1,045,151, and median sold price, $5205K, jumped 53% and 70%, respectively, reflecting increased activity at higher price points. Days on market held steady, decreasing slightly by 2.94%, and the average list-to-sale ratio improved by over 5%, indicating strong buyer demand for well-positioned, turnkey units.
