Hubbardston's Two Disclosed July Sales Land Within $30,000 Of Each Other

HUBBARDSTON -- Ten property deeds were recorded in Hubbardston between July 10 and July 17, but only two disclosed a sale price, both landing within $30,000 of each other, according to Worcester County Registry of Deeds records for the period.

MARKET OVERVIEW Ten deeds were recorded in Hubbardston during the reporting window. Of those, two included a disclosed sale price: $361,250 and $390,000. The median of the two disclosed prices is $375,625. Eight of the ten transactions, or 80 percent of the batch, did not disclose a sale price in the deed record, which is common for certain deed types such as foreclosures, trust transfers and mortgage assignments. With price data available for only two of ten transactions, the raw count of ten recorded deeds cannot be characterized as active or quiet without comparable data from a prior period, which is not available.

TOP SALES A property on 1 Barre Rd Cut Off sold for $390,000 on July 10. The seller was listed as Angela Marie Giliberto and Benjamin Thomas Alzamora; the buyer was listed as Bank of America NA and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. A property listed only as Hubbardston, MA, without a street address, sold for $361,250 on July 17. The seller was listed as Alaina Quebec and Cody J Laine; the buyer was listed as Movement Mortgage LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. Beds, baths and square footage were not available in either deed record. The remaining eight transactions recorded during the period did not disclose a sale price, so they cannot be ranked among top sales by price.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Chicopee Drive saw two deed transfers: 14 Chicopee Dr on July 17 and 86 Chicopee Dr on July 14, both with price not disclosed. Barre Rd also saw two entries dated July 10, listed as 1 Barre Rd Cut Off and 1 Barre Rd Cutoff, both naming Angela Marie Giliberto and Benjamin Thomas Alzamora as seller; the address variation appears to reflect two deeds recorded for the same underlying transaction, one of which disclosed the $390,000 price. The remaining six deeds were spread across individual streets: 52 Dogwood Rd North, 25 Flagg Rd, 1 Cheyenne Dr, 3 Ragged Hill Rd, 4 Madison Way Unit 2, and one transaction with no street address listed. By price tier, both disclosed sales fell under $500,000; no tier data is available for the undisclosed transactions.

MARKET NOTES Several transactions in this period named mortgage-related entities as grantee or grantor, including Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc, Movement Mortgage LLC, Bank of America NA, Guaranteed Rate Inc and Cross River Bank, a pattern consistent with foreclosure-related or mortgage-assignment deed filings rather than conventional owner-to-owner sales. Alaina Quebec and Cody J Laine appear as seller on two separate properties, the unaddressed Hubbardston entry and 1 Cheyenne Dr, both recorded July 17. Two entries involved a trust: 52 Dogwood Rd North transferred from Robert W Lampila and Christine M Lampila as trustees, and 4 Madison Way Unit 2 transferred from Maureen Joyce Bergin as trustee to Maureen Joyce Bergin individually. The Madison Way property, denoted "Unit 2," is the only listing in the batch identified as a condominium unit; property type was not otherwise specified in the remaining deed records.
