Brookfield's Three Disclosed Home Sales Span $35,000 to $358,388 in Late July

BROOKFIELD -- Eight properties in Brookfield recorded deed transfers between July 24 and Aug. 22, according to Worcester County Registry of Deeds records, but only three of those transactions included a disclosed sale price, ranging from $35,000 to $358,388.

MARKET OVERVIEW Registry records show eight deed transfers recorded in Brookfield during the four-week period. Of those, three carried a disclosed sale price: $35,000, $189,000 and $358,388, for a full disclosed price range of $35,000 to $358,388. The median of the three disclosed prices was $189,000. The remaining five transfers, three of which involved trust, estate or corporate sellers, did not include a disclosed consideration amount, which is common in deed data and does not necessarily indicate the nature of the transaction. Eight recorded transfers is the total count available for this period; without prior-month or prior-year figures for Brookfield to compare against, the raw count alone does not establish whether this was a more or less active period than usual for the town.

TOP SALES The highest-priced transaction was a $358,388 sale recorded July 28, with the deed listing the property address only as Brookfield, MA. Cory J. Tebo and Rachel Dematte were listed as sellers; Total Mortgage Services LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. were listed as buyers.

The second-highest disclosed sale was 14 Pleasant St., which sold for $189,000 on July 24. Jeffrey K. Landine was the seller; Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Wells Fargo Bank NA were listed as buyers.

The third disclosed sale was 5 Forrest St., which sold for $35,000 on July 31. Eugene A. Toto and the estate of Rita F. Toto were listed as sellers; R A Anderson Builders LLC was the buyer.

The remaining five recorded transfers, at 26 Gay Rd., 2 Prospect St., 30 Lake Rd., 75 Town Farm Rd. and 68 Old Town Rd., did not include a disclosed sale price and are not ranked among the top sales.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street in the dataset recorded more than one transfer, so no street-level clustering is evident. Grouped by price tier instead, all three sales with a disclosed price, at 5 Forrest St., 14 Pleasant St. and the July 28 transfer recorded as Brookfield, MA, fell under $500,000, spanning $35,000 to $358,388. No transaction in the dataset carried a disclosed price above $500,000. The five sales without a disclosed price are spread across Gay Road, Prospect Street, Lake Road, Town Farm Road and Old Town Road, with no concentration on any single street or area of town.

MARKET NOTES Cory J. Tebo and Rachel Dematte appear as sellers on two separate deeds recorded the same day, July 28: the $358,388 transfer listed only as Brookfield, MA, and the transfer at 26 Gay Rd., which did not disclose a price. The registry data does not specify whether these two entries relate to the same property. Trust and estate involvement appears twice in the data: the 5 Forrest St. sale listed the estate of Rita F. Toto as a co-seller, and the 68 Old Town Rd. transfer listed David E. Myers as trustee alongside the Myers Family Trust as seller. Two transactions, the Brookfield, MA entry and the 14 Pleasant St. sale, list Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. as a buyer or co-buyer, alongside Total Mortgage Services LLC and Wells Fargo Bank NA, respectively. Buyers elsewhere in the dataset include limited liability companies R A Anderson Builders LLC and Yellow Breeches Capital LLC, indicating a mix of individual and business buyers among the recorded transfers. Deed records for this period do not include bedroom, bathroom or square footage figures, so no price-per-square-foot comparison or property-type breakdown is possible.
