## Chittenden County context

Selling anywhere in Chittenden County runs through the Vermont Superior Court's Chittenden unit in Burlington. Vermont foreclosure is judicial through the Superior Court's civil division, and the lender can pursue strict foreclosure in the same case, which can vest title in the lender without a public auction. Estate matters run through the unit's probate division, and deeds and liens are recorded in the land records at each town or city clerk's office, not a county registry. InTym Properties pulls the clerk's land records on every house before we write the offer.

The cost side is town-level too, and Vermont flips the usual split: the property transfer tax is customarily paid by the buyer, at 1.25% of value plus the clean water surcharge on a typical sale, with a reduced rate on the first $200,000 for a buyer's principal residence and higher rates on second homes. Attorney closings are the norm in Vermont. The city pages below carry their own median prices, days on market, and trends.

The clerk's records double as a legitimacy check for any company that offers to buy your house. The entity name on its contract should exist on the Vermont Secretary of State business registry, deeds and liens it records appear in the land records at the town or city clerk's office, and a licensed Vermont attorney or title company can confirm whether it actually closes files. The clause to look for in any offer is 'and/or assigns': it means the signer plans to sell your contract to someone else rather than buy your house.
