Greenfield Deed Data Offers Little Price Clarity as Disclosures Remain Rare in June

GREENFIELD -- Deed filings recorded at the Franklin County Registry of Deeds between June 6 and July 5, 2026, totaled 17 transactions, but only two carried disclosed consideration amounts — leaving the period's true market picture largely opaque. A significant share of the filings appear to involve mortgage servicers, debt-collection entities, and legal transfers rather than conventional property sales.

• MARKET OVERVIEW
• Seventeen deeds were recorded in Greenfield during the period, but only two transactions disclosed a sale price: 98 River St. at $145,000 and 82 Haywood St. at $240,000. With just two data points, the midpoint of $192,500 reflects those two transactions only and cannot be treated as a reliable median for the broader market. The remaining 15 filings either carried no consideration amount or appear to involve non-arm's-length transfers, including mortgage assignments, foreclosure-related conveyances, and debt-buyer recordings. The raw filing count of 17 does not translate to 17 open-market sales, and readers should interpret this period's data accordingly.
• TOP SALES
• The highest disclosed sale in the period was 82 Haywood St., which transferred June 8 from Thomas E. Robinson and Lisa Devlin Robinson to PennyMac Loan Services LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. for $240,000. The filing's buyer names suggest a mortgage-related conveyance rather than a conventional purchase. The period's only other disclosed-price transaction was 98 River St., which sold June 10 for $145,000 from Darren S. Schmidt to Greenfield Cooperative Bank; the presence of a bank as buyer may indicate a foreclosure or deed-in-lieu transaction. No additional sale prices were available for the remaining 15 filings.
• NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
• Mohawk Trail produced two filings in the period: 223 Mohawk Trl. transferred from Joseph H. Nickerson III and Marcia L. Nickerson to Mohawk Trail LLC, and 414 Mohawk Trl. was recorded from the estate of Harvey Levitt through trustee Terri Kramer; neither carried a disclosed price. Haywood Street also generated two filings: 82 Haywood St. at $240,000 and 22 Haywood St., which transferred between Sonia Lindop and Greenfield City with no disclosed price. Emily Lane produced two entries — 11 Emily Ln. Unit 11 and 11 Emily Ln. — both connected to Wayne Louis Garfinkel and a revocable trust, consistent with an intra-family or estate-planning transfer. All other addresses appeared once in the dataset.
• MARKET NOTES
• Of the 17 filings, multiple buyers are identifiable as debt-purchasing or mortgage-servicing entities: Cavalry SPV I LLC appears twice (30 Main St. and 624 Leyden Rd.), Cavalry Portfolio Services LLC appears once (85 Lincoln St.), and LVNV Funding LLC appears once (49 Union St.). These entities typically acquire property interests through judgment liens or charged-off debt portfolios rather than conventional real estate purchases. One filing (no street address provided) lists the Massachusetts Attorney General as grantee from a trustee, a transfer type that may involve regulatory or legal proceedings. Bed, bath, and square-footage data are not available from deed records for any transaction. Given that only two of 17 filings disclosed a sale price and that several filings do not represent conventional sales, this dataset does not support broader conclusions about Greenfield residential market conditions for the period.
