Dudley Deed Data Shows Just One Disclosed Sale Price in August

DUDLEY -- Thirteen property transfers were recorded in Dudley between July 31 and Aug. 5, but sale prices were disclosed in only one of those transactions, limiting what the deed data shows about the local market this period.

MARKET OVERVIEW Worcester County Registry of Deeds records show 13 sales in Dudley during the period. Of those, only one, the July 31 sale of 10 Progress Ave., included a disclosed consideration amount: $75,000. Because just one of 13 transactions listed a price, the reported range and median of $75,000 reflect that single transaction, not the broader market. The raw count of 13 recorded deeds in a four-week window is the only volume indicator available from this dataset; judging whether that represents an active or quiet period would require a basis for comparison that this dataset does not include.

TOP SALES The only transaction with a disclosed price was 10 Progress Ave., which sold for $75,000 on July 31. The sellers were Carlene Ann Benvenuti and Lisa Joan Benvenuti; the buyer was Webster Five Cents Savings Bank. No bed, bath or square-footage figures were available in the deed record. Prices for the remaining 12 transactions were not disclosed, so no further ranking of sale amounts is possible from this data.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No two recorded sales in the period shared the same street. Transactions were spread across Dudley Southbridge Road, Ardlock Place, Cardinal Drive, Center Road, Jaybee Avenue, Ramshorn Road, Progress Avenue, Woodmere Road, Knollwood Road, Noble Street, Day Road and Eagle Drive, along with one transfer recorded without a specific street address. Because 12 of 13 sales lack a disclosed price, transactions cannot be grouped into price tiers for this period.

MARKET NOTES Several deeds in the period named banks, credit unions or Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. as a grantor or grantee, including transfers at 169 Dudley Southbridge Road, 10 Cardinal Drive, 220 Ramshorn Road, 1 Woodmere Road, 25 Noble St. and 42 Eagle Drive. The July 31 sale of 10 Progress Ave., the period's only priced transaction, also listed a bank, Webster Five Cents Savings Bank, as buyer. Three deeds, involving a Dudley transfer with no street address listed, 18 Knollwood Road and 3 Day Road, show grantors and grantees sharing a last name, consistent with a transfer within the same family. Property type, such as single-family, condominium or multi-family, was not specified in any of the 13 records.
