Vt. Stat. Ann. tit. 12, § 4961

Whether or not a power of sale is contained in a mortgage relating to any property, except for farmland or a dwelling house owned by a natural person, instead of a suit and decree of foreclosure, the mortgagee may, upon breach of mortgage condition, foreclose upon the property without first commencing a foreclosure action or obtaining a foreclosure decree by complying with the terms of this subchapter. No sale under and by virtue of a nonjudicial power of sale shall be valid and effectual to foreclose the mortgage unless the conditions of this subchapter are complied with.
