Happy New Year and greetings from snowy, beautiful Vermont!
With the new year, I would like to take the opportunity to give you a quick snapshot of the local real estate market. Here are my thoughts:
- Inventory is low. Not sure why. Doesn't really matter though, because it is a great time to list your property for sale.
- Prices are stable and may even be creeping upwards. We'll need a couple of more months of data but it looks like we are poised for a good winter and spring selling season.
- For the first time in the past couple of years, sales and active listings are almost on par. As of this month, there are 88 active listings in the towns of Weston, Landgrove, Andover, Londonderry and Peru. In the past 12 months, 81 properties in those towns have been sold and another 14 are under contract.
Finally, I'd like to toot our own horn for a moment ... a statistical review of sales on our Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in 2016 and 2017 show that I have been named the top agent working in the towns of Weston, Landgrove, Londonderry, Peru and Andover. With 46 transactions and just shy of $12 million in sales, I was responsible for 11% of the total sales volume in those towns. Mary Mitchell Miller Real Estate was also named the number two agency representing those same towns with 11.67% of the units sold. We're pretty proud of these statistics! Charts showing this statistical information
available here.
If you are planning to sell or purchase a Vermont property in 2018, give us a call!

The PERFECT House
for Winter Sports Lovers
519 Spruce Drive
Andover
$310,000
This fun, very well-maintained mountain home is perfect for winter sports enthusiasts! Snowmobile and cross-country skiing trails run along the edge of the property and it is an easy 15 minutes drive to Ludlow and great skiing at Okemo Mountain.
The property is mostly level, offers all-day sun and there are stunning wide-ranging long-distance views. The light-filled house was designed to take advantage of the location and views and it offers creative and comfortable spaces with room for the family (and more). There are three bedrooms, plus a den and a loft, and the house offers plenty of room to spread out and make yourself at home . . . or, it can comfortably accommodate a group.
The 6.69+/- acres includes 2+ acres of open meadows and another 4+ acres of beautiful hardwood forest. There is a one-car garage at the house, a detached two-car garage/barn with a finished upper level and storage shed. The house is truly turn-key and is offered mostly furnished.
