If you are a Vermont resident more than 1/2 the year I think you should pay lower taxes. If you have a second home rented long term I think you should get more of a tax credit. If you own a home and do short term rentals double all current taxes. If you have a home that sits empty more than 6 months a year triple the taxes.

Also the problem with house around here is the Return on Investment is too high. It’s unfortunate that property is an investment that makes more money. As a first time home buyer my barrier for entry is much higher than someone out of state. This drives up the home prices and I can’t compete with out of state money trying to make more money.
