Testimonials

“Buying a home is super overwhelming, and of course you’ve got your realtor, but it’s good to have somebody else to talk to. Everyone was super friendly, super easy to work with. I really can’t say enough good things about them.”

—Shaunna

“I am so grateful for the opportunities presented by WWHT, for their support of our community, and for making it better. I wish everyone could know about Windham & Windsor Housing Trust.”

—Dora

“Having this apartment matters for us because we can live our lives the way we want to. The fact that my son is able to have his own room, his own things — we’ve both gained a lot of independence.”

—Jessica

“I couldn’t be more pleased with Windham & Windsor Housing Trust to have the vision to move forward with [the Bellows Falls Garage], and be persistent because that’s a building that no one was ever going to touch and work with.”

—Robert

“[The Green Mountain Home Repair Program is] an extremely important resource for the community, and it’s particularly helpful for people who don’t have fantastic credit. If you can’t qualify for anything, you can’t fix your property…. We are just so grateful to WWHT for this program — it allowed us to stay in our home. We belong here, and we are very happy.”

—Gianna

“I’m so happy to have my own apartment — it was one of my goals. It’s good to have your own place, you can think more about life. If I need help, I know people are here for me. This is a good place for me.”

—Mike

Commentary: Nonprofit leaders want Vermonters to feel safe in their homes

We want Vermonters to feel safe in their homes While Vermont’s visible challenges with drug trafficking maybe happening on streets and in parks, what’s happening inside residential apartment buildings is also putting citizens and their neighbors at risk, largely out of sight. These illegal enterprises are surprisingly often operating under tacit protections from State law and the resulting risks are exacerbated by a lengthy court process that takes months to resolve. And this is putting vulnerable Vermonters in harm’s way. A piece of legislation, H.772, addresses some of these issues....

Is Spring the Right Time to Buy a Home in Vermont?

When the snow starts to melt and the days get longer, something shifts for a lot of Vermonters. Spring feels like the season of possibility, and for many, that includes the possibility of buying a home. But where do you actually start? What can you afford? And is spring really the best time to begin? The short answer: yes. Spring is one of the best times to begin your homebuying journey in Vermont. But not because of interest rates or inventory (though those matter). It’s because getting started now gives you time to prepare, ask questions, and make decisions from a position of...

What Shared Equity Really Means — and Why It Works

Shared equity homeownership is one of the most effective tools Vermont has for keeping homes affordable—now and for the next generation of buyers. But for many people, the concept feels unfamiliar. What does “shared equity” actually mean? Who does it help? And why has it become such a powerful pathway to stability in communities across our state? NeighborWorks Alliance of Vermont and Windham & Windsor Housing Trust have helped thousands of Vermonters use shared equity to build a secure foundation. Here’s how it works and why it matters. 1. Shared Equity Makes Homeownership Possible for...

Budgeting, Belonging, and Building Toward a Stable Future

Stability isn’t built overnight. It’s built through small decisions, small habits, and small moments of confidence that add up over time. For many Vermonters, financial stability begins long before buying a home. It starts with understanding their budget, strengthening their credit, and getting the support they need to plan for the future. Windham & Windsor Housing Trust helps people make those small steps possible. Here’s how our education and support programs empower Vermonters every day. 1. Budgeting That Meets People Where They Are A budget isn’t about rules; it’s about clarity. Our...

Letter from the Director: Community Matters

Elizabeth Bridgewater, Executive Director, Windham & Windsor Housing Trust At Windham & Windsor Housing Trust, we believe housing is about more than four walls and a roof. It is about creating places where people feel safe, connected, and supported. At the Snow Block in downtown Brattleboro, we are seeing what is possible when residents, staff, and community partners work together with intention. The Snow Block is home to a growing network of neighbors who are actively building community. With support from WWHT, residents have been participating in restorative circles facilitated in...

Wednesday April 29th, 2026

Big morning on Flat st and Main🚧 Shoutout to all the coordination it took to crane up new AC units for Wilder building.
