County figures are the Vermont average adjusted for local market conditions. Actual rates vary by lender, credit score, and loan size.

In Windham County, property tax runs 1.74% of home value — $604/mo on the $416,394 median home. That's not a footnote; it's 18% of the PITI total before you finance anything.

Run the same home with 10% down and your payment includes $219/mo of PMI on top. Combined: $3,353/mo — and on an $80,000 household income, that lands a 57.8% back-end DTI, above the 43% conventional ceiling.

What this means in practice: in high-tax counties, the tax bill, not the rate, is what breaks your qualification. The lever that fixes it is usually the down payment — every 5 points of down payment removes roughly $219/mo and pulls DTI down by 3.3 points. The second lever is loan type: FHA underwrites to 57% back-end.

Your Windham County payment already includes $604/mo in property tax

And if you're putting down less than 20%, PMI adds $219/mo on top. Run your income through the DTI gauge: if it's over 43%, most conventional lenders stop the conversation there. You don't want to find that out at underwriting.

Two moves keep you in the game: a larger down payment, or a lender that writes high-DTI files. FHA caps at 57%, and some licensed lenders offer PMI-reduction programs. Match your profile against lenders rather than picking one on brand.
