Lancaster's lone priced sale this period closes at $307,000

LANCASTER -- Eleven deeds recorded at the Worcester County Registry of Deeds between Aug. 28 and Sept. 26 show property changing hands across town, but sale prices have posted for only one of those transactions so far.

MARKET OVERVIEW

The registry recorded 11 real estate transfers in Lancaster during the period. Of those, one carries a sale price on record: $307,000. Because only a single price has posted, that figure stands as both the range and the median for the month; it is not yet possible to characterize the broader price range or typical sale price for the period. Price data for deed records typically appears within about a week of recording, so figures for the remaining 10 transactions may still be forthcoming. Based on the raw count alone, 11 recorded transfers in a four-week span is a normal volume of activity for the town; the data does not support calling the period especially active or quiet beyond that count.

TOP SALES

The lone transaction with a recorded price is a $307,000 sale that closed Aug. 31, with Elizabeth Delsignore as seller and Cornerstone Bank as buyer. No street address was provided in the deed record for this transaction. No other sales in this period have a recorded price yet, so no additional entries can be ranked by price. The 10 remaining transfers, listed by recording date, are: 251 High St. Ext. (Aug. 31), 120 High St. Ext. (Aug. 31), 9 Highfield Drive (Aug. 31), 181 Parker Road (Aug. 31), 325 Sterling Road (Aug. 31), 284 Devonshire Way (Aug. 31), 121 Nicholas Drive (Aug. 28), 55 McGovern Blvd. (Aug. 28), 1474 Lunenburg Road (Aug. 28), and 18 Laurel Hill Lane (Aug. 28).

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Two of the 11 recorded transfers involve High Street Extension: 251 High St. Ext. and 120 High St. Ext., both recorded Aug. 31. No other street name repeats in this period's data. Beyond that overlap, the transactions are spread across Highfield Drive, Parker Road, Sterling Road, Devonshire Way, Nicholas Drive, McGovern Boulevard, Lunenburg Road and Laurel Hill Lane, with no other geographic clustering evident in the data. Because only one transaction has a recorded price, sales cannot be grouped into price tiers for this period.

MARKET NOTES

Seven of the 11 deeds were recorded Aug. 31, with the remaining four recorded Aug. 28; the data does not indicate why filings clustered on those two dates. The seller on file for 55 McGovern Blvd. and 1474 Lunenburg Road is the same entity, Nadreau Lancaster Realty LLC, in both cases recorded Aug. 28. Several deeds list a bank, credit union, or mortgage-related entity among the sellers, including Digital Federal Credit Union, Citizens Bank NA, Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., and Workers Federal Credit Union, alongside a named individual or company as a co-seller on the same deed; the data provided does not specify buyers for these transactions. No square footage, bedroom, bathroom, or property-type data was available for any transaction in this period, so no price-per-square-foot or property-mix comparisons can be made. With price data available for only one of 11 recorded deeds, this month's snapshot is necessarily incomplete, and a fuller picture of Lancaster's September market may emerge as additional prices post to the registry.
