2025 July - Mad River Valley Real Estate Driven by Data
Posted on 7/15/2025 by Erik H. Reisner
In Brief:
Summer activities in the Mad River Valley are in full swing! The Warren Fourth of July Parade was absolutely Epic this year! (Stay tuned for our Valley Views blog post later this month for more color) Then we had the 14th running of the Mad Marathon that brought over 1,000 runners to experience one of the most beautiful, and grueling, marathons in the country. The real estate market has also been fairly active with more inventory coming, and going…
Recreation and the forecast:
Luckily the weather cooperated this year for both the parade and the marathon. Both had relatively mild temperatures and no rain except for a brief sprinkle at the end of the marathon. However, we are now heading into our second heat wave of the summer, and while the Mad River Valley has been spared thus far, our neighbors in the Northeast Kingdom endured some flash flooding for the third year in a row on the same date (July 10)! May the weather gods look favorably upon us for the balance of the summer. The swimming holes have been quite popular, the mountain biking trails are in awesome shape, and the East Warren Road in Waitsfield has been repaved which makes cyclists and runners alike happy!
Now onto the market update:
Currently there are 19 single family homes under contract or pending sale in the price range of $350,000 - $2,795,000 (up from 16 last month, and up from 12 two months ago), 11 whole-ownership condominiums under contract or pending sale priced from $135,000 - $495,000 (up from 10 last month and 9 two months ago), 3 undeveloped land parcel under contract priced from $75,000 - $132,000 (up from 2 last month, and down from 4 two months ago), and ZERO commercial properties under contract (ZERO last month, and ZERO two months ago).
Regarding the properties that are currently under contract, 4 of the 11 condos, 9 of the 19 single family homes, and 1 of the 3 land parcels were listed after June 1, 2025. While we are seeing some inventory linger on the market a bit longer, it’s clear that the market is still very active and healthy here in the Mad River Valley.
