The Colchester Market
What Drives Rentals In Colchester
When we underwrite a Colchester property, we start with the demand behind it — Saint Michael’s College, the University of Vermont Medical Center and other Burlington-area employers, and GlobalFoundries’ semiconductor fab in nearby Essex Junction.
North of Burlington along Lake Champlain, Colchester houses college students, hospital staff, and technology workers in a mix of garden apartments and converted historic buildings at the former Fort Ethan Allen. Limited new supply supports steady occupancy.
In Fort Ethan Allen and Colchester Village as much as Malletts Bay, we are open to buildings with deferred maintenance, below-market rents, or occupancy problems.

- Chittenden County handles assessment for Colchester properties, so we check the current assessed value and how a sale may change it.

Selling In Colchester? Common Situations We Handle
Colchester Seller FAQ
Is Colchester a market you actively buy in?
It is. We review Colchester apartment buildings of five or more units, with particular attention to Malletts Bay, Fort Ethan Allen, Winooski, and Colchester Village.
What drives rental demand in Colchester?
Demand in Colchester is supported by Saint Michael’s College, the University of Vermont Medical Center and other Burlington-area employers, and GlobalFoundries’ semiconductor fab in nearby Essex Junction. We weigh those fundamentals, along with the condition and rent roll of each building, when we set a price.
Do I need to fix up my Colchester building before selling?
No. We price in deferred maintenance, vacancy, and below-market rents ourselves, so you can sell the property as it stands.
How does a sale to you work in Chittenden County?
Send the address, unit count, and any financials. We give feedback, then a written letter of intent if it fits, followed by diligence and a closing date that works for you.
