Frequently Asked Questions About Selling in Vermont
Will you buy an old Vermont farmhouse?
Yes. We buy old farmhouses, historic homes, and other aging Vermont properties including with foundation issues, original wiring, knob-and-tube, and significant deferred maintenance.
How long does Vermont foreclosure take?
Vermont uses judicial foreclosure with a typical timeline of about 300 days from filing to sale — one of the slower timelines in the country. That gives you significant time to explore alternatives, including selling to Keyheart in as little as 7 days for cash.
Do I owe Vermont state capital gains tax when selling my home?
Vermont taxes capital gains as regular income (up to 8.75% top rate) but provides a 40% exclusion for long-term gains on certain Vermont assets. The federal primary-residence exclusion ($250K single / $500K married) applies first. Most homeowners selling their primary residence won't owe Vermont state capital gains tax.
Will Keyheart buy a Vermont ski condo or vacation home?
Yes. We buy vacation properties throughout Vermont including ski condos in Stowe, Killington, Stratton, and other resort areas. Off-season buyer scarcity doesn't stop us.
