An estimate, not a loan offer: payments of up to 28% of income, a 30-year fixed loan, Vienna’s typical property tax (2.14% of value a year, from the Census) and insurance of about 0.35%. Mortgage insurance, HOA fees and other debts aren’t included.

No new homes permitted in 2025
No permits for new homes were issued in Vienna in 2025. The last year with any was 2012 (23 new homes).
Between the 2010 and 2020 censuses, Vienna's population fell by 180 even though 55 new homes were permitted. Homes are holding fewer people: households are getting smaller, or more homes are used part of the year. 19% of Vienna's homes are seasonal or vacation homes, which adds housing without adding residents. Across New York: 2.2 new residents per new home.
