I’ll be honest I would absolutely not recommend a move to Vermont right now in general and especially on that income.

I say this as a household who nets more than you, has a ton of family in Vermont I could stay with/lean on, connections from growing up here, and is STILL not able to buy a viable home.

I’d recommend looking at upstate NY- possibly very similar in terms of checking those boxes but much more affordable. Additionally since I don’t see it mentioned yet- I’m assuming you’re working remote, and any of those 100k listings you’re seeing beyond likely being completely dilapidated will probably not have reliable internet capacity.
