Hubbardston Sees Eleven Property Transfers but Just One Recorded Sale Price

HUBBARDSTON -- Eleven properties changed hands in Hubbardston between Sept. 11 and Oct. 10, according to deeds recorded at the Worcester County Registry of Deeds, but only one transaction carried a sale price in the registry data as of this report. The remaining 10 prices had not yet posted, which is typical given the registry's usual lag of about a week before consideration amounts appear.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Eleven sales were recorded during the period. Of those, one carried a recorded price: $120,000 for a property on Grimes Road. With only one priced sale, the dataset does not support a meaningful range or median beyond that single figure. The raw count of 11 recorded deeds suggests the period was active by volume, though price-based conclusions about the market will need to wait until more considerations post to the registry.

TOP SALES

59 Grimes Rd sold for $120,000 on Sept. 21. The seller was listed as Heather M. Budrewicz and Heather Munroe; the buyer was Operative Bank. No other sale in this period has a recorded price yet. The following properties also transferred during the period, with price not yet available: 56 Brigham Rd (Sept. 16), 19 Madison Way Unit 37 (Sept. 16), 19 South Cove Rd Unit 19 (Sept. 16), and 83 Ragged Hill Rd (Sept. 15).

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

No street in this period had more than one recorded transfer, so no street-level clustering emerged. By price tier, the lone recorded sale, 59 Grimes Rd at $120,000, falls under $500,000. The other 10 transfers cannot yet be sorted into a price tier because their considerations have not posted to the registry.

MARKET NOTES

The period's deed records show a mix of property types, including at least three condominium units: 19 Madison Way Unit 37, 19 South Cove Rd Unit 19, and 22 Moosehorn Cir Unit 22. Two transfers appear to be trust-related transactions within the same family: a Sept. 23 deed moving a property from Joseph L. Bartolomei and Cheryl A. Paul to Joseph L. Bartolomei and Cheryl A. Paul as trustees, and a Sept. 14 deed on Gardner Road moving a property from Angelo G. and Angelo J. Salvadore to Angelo G. and Melody J. Salvadore as trustees. Several other recorded sellers or buyers are banks or mortgage-related entities, including Operative Bank, EnerBankUSA, Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., Workers Federal Credit Union, GoodLeap LLC, and Cornerstone Bank; the deed data does not indicate the nature of these transactions beyond the names recorded. With price data available for only one of 11 sales, no per-square-foot or price-trend observations are possible this period.
