Greenfield Sale Prices Range From $58,000 to $360,000 Where Disclosed

GREENFIELD -- Nine property transfers were recorded at the Franklin County Registry of Deeds for Greenfield between June 26 and July 25, with disclosed sale prices ranging from $58,000 to $360,000. Most transactions in the period did not include a listed sale price.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded nine deed transfers in Greenfield during the period. Of those, three listed a sale price, ranging from $58,000 to $360,000, with a median of $309,000. The remaining six transfers did not disclose a price, which is common for deed records and does not necessarily indicate the property changed hands without payment. Based on raw count alone, nine recorded transfers over four weeks represents a modest, steady volume for the town; the data does not support characterizing the period as especially active or slow.

TOP SALES 106 Summer St. sold for $360,000 on June 29. John Balis was the seller; Timothy Kang and Danielle Devine were the buyers.

29 Hastings St. sold for $309,000 on June 29. Jack Mankowsky was the seller. The buyers listed are Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Onity Mortgage Corp., entities commonly associated with mortgage-related deed transfers.

30 Meadow Wood Dr. sold for $58,000 on June 26. Elaine G. Dunn was the seller, and Greenfield Cooperative Bank is listed as the buyer.

No other transactions in the period disclosed a sale price.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No two sales in the period shared the same street, so the transfers are broken down by price tier among those with disclosed figures. One sale fell under $100,000: 30 Meadow Wood Dr. at $58,000. Two sales fell between $100,000 and $500,000: 29 Hastings St. at $309,000 and 106 Summer St. at $360,000. The remaining six transfers -- at 52 Log Plain Rd., an unspecified Greenfield address, 54 Riddell St., 450 Green River Rd., 159 Chapman St. and 47 Highland Ave. -- did not disclose a price and cannot be placed into a tier.

MARKET NOTES Six of the nine recorded transfers, or two-thirds, did not include a disclosed sale price. Bed, bath and square-footage figures were not available in the deed data for any transaction.

Several transfers involved mortgage-related entities rather than individual buyers or sellers. Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. appears as a buyer at 29 Hastings St. and as a seller, alongside Geneva Financial LLC, at 54 Riddell St. It also appears as a seller, alongside CrossCountry Mortgage LLC, at 450 Green River Rd. Operative Bank is listed as the seller at the unspecified Greenfield address, and Greenfield Cooperative Bank is listed as the buyer at 30 Meadow Wood Dr. These patterns are typical of bank-mediated deed transfers; the data does not indicate why any individual transfer occurred.

One transaction, at 47 Highland Ave., listed grantors and grantees who share surnames -- Miller and Arnold appear on both sides of the transfer -- consistent with a transfer within the same family. Two other transactions, at 52 Log Plain Rd. and 159 Chapman St., list sellers but no buyer in the available data.
