Smart Ways to Invest in Vermont Land in 2026
Vermont’s mix of working farmland, timberland, and scenic rural properties continues to draw buyers looking to invest in land across the Green Mountain State. A smart approach starts with choosing the right parcel type for your goals—agricultural use, long-term appreciation, conservation, recreation, or development—then evaluating zoning, access, utilities, and environmental factors like wetlands or soil quality. Successful Vermont land investors also account for ongoing costs such as property taxes, maintenance, and insurance, and explore financing options tailored to raw land. By doing careful due diligence and planning for both short- and long-term use, investors can position themselves to benefit from Vermont land ownership.
