Gardner Sale Prices Range Widely as Most Deeds Omit Purchase Price

GARDNER -- Nine property deeds were recorded in Gardner during the period, but only three disclosed a sale price, leaving most of the month's transaction values unknown. The highest disclosed sale, 560 Pleasant St. at $382,500, topped a group of deeds that also included several bank- and trust-related transfers.

MARKET OVERVIEW Nine deeds were recorded in Gardner in this data set, all dated July 17, 2026. Of those, three disclosed a sale price, ranging from $190,000 to $382,500, with a median of $360,000 among the disclosed sales. The other six transactions, several involving banks, mortgage servicers or family trusts, did not include a stated consideration amount, which is common for foreclosure-related and intra-family transfers. With only a third of deeds reporting a price, the raw count shows a moderate volume of recorded activity for the period, though the limited pricing data restrains any broader read on market direction.

TOP SALES 560 Pleasant St. sold for $382,500 on July 17, the highest disclosed price of the period. Rahman Md Moklesur sold the property; the deed lists Bankesb as buyer, with Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. also named.

12 Abbott St. sold for $360,000 on July 17. Melory D. Cornett and Jane M. Cornett sold the property to Operative Bank.

15 East Broadway Rear sold for $190,000 on July 17. Darren P. Smith and Lisa Smith sold the property to Evergrain Orchard LLC.

The remaining six transactions, at 289 Temple St., 0 Stephanie Dr., 184 Regan St., 272 Chapel St., a second deed tied to 15 East Broadway Rear, and one unaddressed Gardner property, did not disclose a sale price.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN All three disclosed sales fell under $500,000, ranging from $190,000 at 15 East Broadway Rear to $382,500 at 560 Pleasant St. No street had more than one disclosed sale. The six undisclosed-price transactions were spread across Temple, Stephanie, Regan and Chapel streets, plus a second deed at 15 East Broadway Rear. That address is the only one to appear twice in the period's records: once for the $190,000 sale to Evergrain Orchard LLC, and again in a separate deed listing Darren P. Smith alone as seller, with no buyer or price recorded.

MARKET NOTES Several of the undisclosed-price deeds involved financial institutions rather than individual buyers or sellers. Capital One NA and Dovenmuehle Mortgage Inc. are listed as sellers on the 289 Temple St. deed, and Rockland Trust Co. is listed as buyer on the 0 Stephanie Dr. deed. Evergrain Orchard LLC appears on both sides of the record set: as buyer of 15 East Broadway Rear for $190,000, and separately as seller of an unaddressed Gardner property to High Cotton Capital LLC. The 272 Chapel St. deed shows Glenda L. Guertin and Glenda Guertin transferring the property to Glenda L. Guertin, trustee, and the Chapel Street Trust, a transfer within the same family. All nine deeds in this data set carry the same July 17 recording date.
