Vermont has statutes specific to residential rental agreements. Burlington has additional regulations regarding rental housing within the city. It behooves both renters and property owners to read and understand the laws prior to entering into a lease agreement. In 2008, the Vermont Apartment Owners Association successfully lobbied for changes to the Vermont rental agreement statute, which strengthen tenant rights while also streamlining the eviction process.

Other pertinent statutes include Title 12 sec. 169 Ejectment, and the consumer fraud statutes (9 V.S.A. Chapter 63 sec 2451-62)–Vermont courts have ruled that violations of the habitability law constitute consumer fraud and tenants can sue for treble damages; fire safety codes that regulate among other things smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
