Market Intelligence
Burlington's STR investment market is driven by UVM graduation weekends, Burlington Discover Jazz Festival, and Lake Champlain waterfront tourism. Burlington STR regulations distinguish between owner-occupant and investor STR.
Burlington STR Permits: Investor STR (non-owner-occupant) requires a separate permit category and may not be permitted in all Burlington residential zones — verify zoning eligibility before offer.
Burlington STR Revenue: 3-bedroom Burlington Hill Section STR with confirmed permit generates $35,000-$65,000 annual gross. Net income after management, cleaning, and 10% Vermont/Burlington STR tax: $22,000-$42,000 annually.
Vermont Rooms and Meals Tax Plus Burlington Local Option: Vermont 9% plus Burlington 1% Local Option Tax = 10% total STR tax on gross revenue.
Multi-Family LTR Comparison: Burlington duplex at $480,000 with two units at $1,500-$2,200 monthly generates $36,000-$52,800 annual LTR gross — comparable to STR on a single unit with year-round UVM occupancy stability and no STR permit dependency.
