Only Confirmed Oxford Home Sale This Period Closes at $300,000

OXFORD -- Eight residential property transfers were recorded at the Worcester County Registry of Deeds for Oxford between Aug. 21 and Sept. 19, but sale prices had posted for only one of them by the time records were pulled, leaving most of the period's activity still awaiting pricing data.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Eight sales were recorded during the period. Of those, one carried a recorded sale price: $300,000. That single figure sets both the low and high end of the confirmed price range and stands as the median as well, since it is the only price available so far. Prices for the remaining seven sales were not yet available in the registry data, which is typical in the days and weeks after a deed is recorded and does not indicate the price was withheld. With only one confirmed price, the raw count of eight recorded transfers does not by itself indicate whether the period was more or less active than usual for Oxford.

TOP SALES

The lone sale with a recorded price was a $300,000 transfer in Oxford, recorded Aug. 24, with Byrnes Investment Group LLC as seller and Cornerstone Bank as buyer. Bed, bath and square footage figures are not available from deed records.

The remaining seven recorded transfers have no price yet available: 2 Jasmine Road (recorded Aug. 24, seller Citizens Bank NA and Adam D Gustafson), 25 Sutton Avenue (recorded Aug. 24, sellers listed as Cornerstone Bank and Byrnes Investment Group LLC), 15 Monument Drive (recorded Aug. 21, sellers Lawrence T. Tomasino and Alice M. Tomasino), 14 Buffum Dam Road (recorded Aug. 21, sellers Santander Bank NA and Christine A. Mulcahy), 12 Newton Avenue (recorded Aug. 21, sellers Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Tara B. Latuga), 12 Pine Ridge Drive (recorded Aug. 21, sellers David Tetteh and Gravity Property Solutions LLC, buyer Gravity Property Solutions LLC) and 39 Fairlawn Avenue (recorded Aug. 21, sellers Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing and NewRez LLC). Once prices post to the registry, typically within about a week of recording, a fuller ranking will be possible.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

No two recorded sales in this period shared the same street, so no street-level cluster emerged. By price tier, only one sale has been classified so far: the $300,000 Oxford transfer falls under $500,000. The other seven sales, at Jasmine Road, Sutton Avenue, Monument Drive, Buffum Dam Road, Newton Avenue, Pine Ridge Drive and Fairlawn Avenue, cannot yet be sorted into a price tier because their sale prices have not been recorded.

MARKET NOTES

Several of the period's deed records list banks or mortgage-servicing entities as sellers, including Citizens Bank NA, Cornerstone Bank, Santander Bank NA, Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing and NewRez LLC. That pattern appears in five of the eight recorded transfers, including both the priced Oxford sale and the Sutton Avenue transfer, which lists Cornerstone Bank and Byrnes Investment Group LLC together as sellers. Two sales, 15 Monument Drive and 14 Buffum Dam Road, involve individual sellers paired with a bank entity. The Pine Ridge Drive transfer lists Gravity Property Solutions LLC as both a seller and the buyer, alongside seller David Tetteh. With sale prices unavailable for seven of eight transfers, no price-per-square-foot or property-type comparisons can be made this period.
