Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).

Essex County is seeing more homes available, with active listings up over 20 percent from last year and now at 85. Sales activity has picked up, with homes sold rising nearly 47 percent year over year and pending sales also higher than a year ago. At the same time, new listings have dropped sharply from August and are down compared with last year, which could limit fresh options coming to market.

Prices are reacting in mixed ways as this shift plays out. The typical home value is up almost 5 percent from a year ago and jumped more than 10 percent in the past month, yet the median list price has fallen steeply year over year, suggesting sellers are adjusting expectations to attract buyers.

Conditions still lean toward buyers, with seven months of supply in Essex County compared with about five months statewide in Vermont. Homes are taking a long time to sell at a median of 102 days on market, and the average sale-to-list price ratio has slipped to about 89 percent with no recent sales closing above asking, signaling buyers have some negotiating power. With these crosscurrents in inventory, pricing, and time on market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands the latest trends in Essex County.



Learn more about what Essex County has to offer.

Essex County offers its residents a close-knit community, abundant outdoor recreation, and wholesome, small-town amenities that support families, work, and a high quality of life.

Essex County feels different from nearby Chittenden County or Caledonia County. Here, the pace is quieter, the forests are deeper, and small towns like Brighton and Bloomfield define daily life more than big-box conveniences. Residents value privacy, self reliance, and neighbors who know each other by name.

The county’s identity is shaped by its vast wildlands. The Silvio O. Conte National Fish and Wildlife Refuge and the North Branch Trail welcome hikers, paddlers, and wildlife watchers who want real solitude. In Brighton, Island Pond offers four season recreation on the water and a small but active village center. Families appreciate local schools such as Canaan Schools and community hubs like the Island Pond Public Library, which help anchor this rural region.

Housing here ranges from camp-style retreats and off grid cabins to long held village homes. Inventory can be limited and highly seasonal compared with Lamoille County or Orleans County, so timing and preparation matter. Buyers who clarify priorities and financing early are ready when the right property appears. Sellers who understand current demand for year round living versus second homes can price and present effectively.

Agent Pronto can connect you with a real estate professional who knows Essex County’s local nuances and can guide both buyers and sellers to make the most of the market right now.

“Patrick's professionalism and expertise became evident from our first interaction. We discussed a plan to get the house prepared for selling, deciding what was critical and what would be nice to do. Patrick diligently worked to determine the value of my home for the highest sale in the shortest time possible, meeting my number one priority. With Patricks expertise in marketing, the house was under contract within a week. He worked with the other realator to ensure the process was seamless on my end. Patrick exceeded my expectations in everyway while selling my house, start to finish! I highly recommend Patrick if you value someone who works as hard as you do in your own profession!”

“This was our 4th transaction with her! We sold and bought with her in 2023 and then again this year. I not only consider her one of the best realtors I've ever met BUT she is now a family friend. She was extremely patient with us and our kids. We have a special needs son and brought our kids to almost every showing. She was extremely friendly and our kids adore her. That made this process so much easier. She stood up for us when need be and she always had our back. She is so knowledgeable about real estate and just Wisconsin in general. We absolutely adore her. She's the best.”

“Have known Kim for years and she is a valued member of our community. This parcel was a bit unusual in that it was a large parcel in a rural community with complicated environmental requirements. I chose her because her long experience and knowledge of our area was needed for a successful outcome. Kim is a stand up person who tells it like it is and is trusted by everyone for those reasons. I will always recommend her for all of the above. Rich B”

“My experience working with Jason Geary was excellent. He was referred to me by a previous realtor agent that helped me purchase my current home. The communication with Jason was excellent and communicated any updates with the current status of the home when receiving offers and interest in the property. Immediately, broke down what to expect from the process of listing the house on the market and what to expect when the house did sell. Always, allowed me to make decisions on my own by only educating what options were available when something need to be addressed. Overall, my experience was great and would recommend him to any new or current home buyers. I will definitely be ussing his services again in the future.”

“I can't say enough good things about Carl. From our first conversation to closing day, he was kind, understanding, and patient, even when I had a lot of questions. His knowledge of the Texas market made me feel confident at every step, and he explained things in a way that was easy to follow. He always answered my calls promptly, and he was the voice of reason when I needed one. Buying a home can be stressful, and he kept me calm and focused on what mattered. I would choose him again in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a realtor you can trust , call Carl.”
