The Vermont Department of Taxes is currently working on an update to the weekly public Property Transfer Tax (PTT) data to make the data more accessible for all members of the public. The data will be migrated to an updated web server that can be accessed through all web browsers and is being restructured to align more closely with the property transfer tax return forms (PTT-172 and PTT-175). We anticipate that the new server and file format will be available in the Summer of 2023.
We recognize that this change may require updated procedures for those who use automated processes to analyze and compile the weekly data. The Department will provide updated documentation to clearly identify how the fields in the updated file formats match to lines on the PTT forms. Additionally, the past five years of property transfer tax returns will be made available in the new file format.
Weekly Property Transfer Tax Data
These reports hold information of property sales by town and property category. Furthermore, details for total sales, average, and median selling prices of properties for valid sales are reported. Valid sales represent true market transactions between a willing buyer and seller, excluding straw transfers or sales between members of the immediate family among others.
Important update: We are entering the final stages of updating the Weekly Public Property Transfer data. During this time the weekly files will not be available. For any urgent requests or questions, please contact the Department by submitting a data request.
