What the numbers mean
A market measure is a starting point, not your house’s price
Condition and needed repairs, whether the house is vacant or has tenants, and how long you can wait can change the comparison for your address. A town-wide figure cannot account for those details.
Zillow’s typical home value is a modeled measure for its displayed place and month, not a price or offer for your particular house: $261,695 (As of September 2026; Zillow typical home value for Newport, VT).
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Compare that option with the repairs, selling costs, and time involved in listing or holding the house.

Newport City Master Plan Update →
Vermont’s property transfer tax depends on how the buyer will use the property. The general rate is 1.25%, plus a 0.22% Clean Water Surcharge, for 1.47% total. A house fit for year-round living that is neither the buyer’s principal residence nor a qualifying long-term rental has a higher total rate of 3.62%. Principal residences and exempt transfers have different treatment; the closing attorney applies the right category.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Vermont’s property transfer tax and Clean Water Surcharge. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What you may keep
Sale price and money left after costs are different numbers
Compare the sale price or written offer with your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, repairs or cleanout, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while waiting. The Newport calculator lets you change planning assumptions to compare a listing with an as-is sale.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.

Newport City market report questions
What do the current Newport City market figures show?
The figures above give you a snapshot of the housing market. Your house’s condition, needed repairs, tenants, and timing shape your own comparison.
Does a market figure tell me what my house is worth?
No. A town-wide sale measure summarizes activity for its stated place and period. Zillow’s typical home value is a modeled measure. Neither one sets a price or offer for your particular address; condition, repairs, occupancy, and timing affect your comparison.
How does Vermont property transfer tax apply to a house sale?
The rate depends on how the buyer will use the property. The general rate is 1.25%, plus a 0.22% Clean Water Surcharge, for 1.47% total. A year-round home that is neither the buyer’s principal residence nor a qualifying long-term rental has a higher 3.62% total rate; principal residences and exempt transfers have different treatment. The closing attorney applies the right category. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Vermont’s property transfer tax and Clean Water Surcharge. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
What changes how much I may keep after a sale?
Compare the sale price or written offer with your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, repairs or cleanout, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while you wait. Tenants and timing can also affect the comparison. The calculator lets you test planning assumptions; its result is an estimate, not an offer.
