Boylston's only confirmed sale price this period is $419,500

BOYLSTON -- Twelve deeds were recorded in Boylston between Sept. 11 and Oct. 10, but the Worcester County Registry of Deeds has posted a sale price for only one of them so far. That single recorded price, $419,500 for a Sewall Street property, is the only hard number available for this roundup.

MARKET OVERVIEW

The registry recorded 12 property transfers in Boylston during the period. Of those, only one, 76 Sewall St., has a sale price posted: $419,500. That figure is therefore both the low and high end of the range reported here, and the median by default. The other 11 transactions show no price yet, which is typical of registry data in the days and weeks after recording and does not indicate the parties withheld the figures. Based on raw count alone, 12 recorded deeds is a reasonable volume of activity for Boylston over a four-week span, though with just one price confirmed, the data does not yet support a broader read on where values are trending.

TOP SALES

76 Sewall St. sold for $419,500, recorded Sept. 18. The sellers were Patrick J. and Chelsea L. Belliveau; the deed names Rocket Mortgage LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. as grantees. Bed, bath and square footage figures were not available from the deed record.

No other transaction recorded in this period has a posted sale price yet. The following transfers were recorded but currently show "price not yet available": 436 School St. Unit 436, 9 Glazier St., 173 Central St., 16 Pine St., 80 Mile High Rd., 340 Green St., a Boylston property without a listed street address, 6 Bay Path Dr., 290 Shrewsbury St., 37 A Main St. and 415 Green St. Prices for these typically post to the registry within about a week of recording; this roundup will reflect updated figures as they become available in future editions.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Green Street had two recorded transfers in the period, at 340 Green St. and 415 Green St., both without posted prices. No other street had more than one recorded transaction. With only one confirmed price in the dataset, a price-tier breakdown is not meaningful this month; that single sale, at $419,500, would fall in the under-$500,000 tier if a tier structure is applied once more prices are available.

MARKET NOTES

Several of the period's deeds involved financial institutions as a party to the transfer, including Rocket Mortgage LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. (76 Sewall St.), Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and LoanDepot.com LLC transferring to JPMorgan Chase Bank NA (16 Pine St.), Digital Federal Credit Union (80 Mile High Rd.), All One Credit Union (37 A Main St.) and Citizens Bank NA (415 Green St.). Deed data alone does not indicate whether these reflect foreclosure activity, refinancing or other lender-related filings, and this roundup does not speculate on that distinction.

A handful of transfers appear to be within the same family or into a trust. The deed for 436 School St. Unit 436 shows Aaron R. Sparks transferring to Alexandria N. Sparks. At 9 Glazier St., the sellers are listed as Christopher S. Jones and Carole T. Jones, both as trustees. The 173 Central St. deed lists Carrie D. Hoyt and the Linda M. Murphy Trust as sellers. And two linked entries, one with no listed street address and one at 6 Bay Path Dr., both show Joan A. Deal transferring the property into or out of a trust in her own name. None of these patterns should be read as evidence of financial distress or any other motivation; they are simply what the deed records show.

Two commercial-sounding transactions also appear in the data: 290 Shrewsbury St., recorded from Shrewsbury Owner LLC to United Rentals North America Inc. and Ares Steel Contractor LLC, and 340 Green St., recorded from Emma Elizabeth Downey and Emma Downey to Surface Care Inc. Property type (single-family, condo, multi-family or commercial) is not specified in the deed data provided, so no breakdown by property type is possible this month.
