Vermont is an active investor market with real structural friction. Strict foreclosure rules, some of the highest property taxes in the nation, and ski-town rental markets directly shape how DSCR loans here are underwritten and structured.
Brick City Capital provides DSCR loans in Vermont for brokers and investor clients where the structure of the deal is the real obstacle even when borrower credit is strong. As a DSCR lender built for complex files, we underwrite to how the asset actually performs in Vermont's market.

Across Burlington, Rutland, Montpelier, and the ski corridors of Stowe and Killington, investor demand is strong. But Vermont's court-driven foreclosure process, tax structure, and vacation markets introduce structural realities that materially affect underwriting:
A court-driven strict foreclosure process that can transfer title without a sale and lengthen timelines.
Among the highest property taxes in the nation, with a statewide nonhomestead rate on investment property.
Stowe and Killington vacation demand under town-by-town rules, underwriting on seasonal income.
Appraisal variability across rural towns and older multifamily blocks with thin comparable sales.
High investor concentration in ski-town corridors and individual buildings beyond conventional limits.
Renovated and repositioned assets carrying no stabilized rental operating history behind them.
In this environment, qualification is rarely about income alone. It’s about how the deal is structured around tax exposure, concentration limits, and timeline risk.
Each structural reality above has a specific underwriting answer on a Vermont file.

When a hard file closes the way you told your client it would, your credibility comes out intact.
