Reply to comment by Corey307 in Looking to buy a house in Vermont - What cities do you recommend by psychicfrequency

No problem with a fixer upper. I'm pre-approved for a mortgage and my loan officer knows I'm considering Vermont as my home.

You’ll probably run into some roadblocks with the condition of houses in your 300k price range. Are you capable of renovating the house by yourself?

It’s really hard to find any tradesmen here that aren’t booked out for a year at least and they are hesitant to take on anything but the largest most lucrative projects.Things have been slowing down a little, but it is still much more expensive to have anything renovated here than in other parts of the country. Contractors are still giving “go away” price quotes as they have more business than they need
