Only one of 14 Oxford deed transfers carries a recorded sale price so far

OXFORD -- Fourteen property deeds were recorded in Oxford between Sept. 11 and Oct. 10, according to Worcester County Registry of Deeds records, but only one carried a sale price by the time this roundup was compiled.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded 14 property transfers in Oxford during the period. Of those, only one, a $355,000 sale with a buyer's address of record listed simply as Oxford, included a recorded consideration amount. Because only one of 14 transactions has a price on file, a meaningful price range or median cannot be calculated for the period as a whole; the single recorded price is $355,000. The remaining 13 transfers show price not yet available, which is typical for deed data that has not yet been fully processed by the registry. The raw count of 14 recorded transfers is consistent with ordinary registry activity for Oxford; it does not by itself indicate whether the underlying sales market was active or quiet, since most of the transactions lack price data.

TOP SALES The only transaction with a recorded price was a $355,000 sale in Oxford, recorded Sept. 11. The seller was North East Property Alternatives Corp, and the buyers were listed as Jennifer Voas, trustee, and Mechanic Street Associates Realty Trust. A specific street address was not included in the deed record for this transaction. No other sales in this period have a recorded price, so additional top sales cannot be reported until price data becomes available.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Two streets each had two recorded transfers during the period. Main Street saw transfers at 53 Main St. and 145 Main St., both recorded Sept. 11. Depot Road saw transfers at 106 Depot Rd. and 1 Depot Rd., also both recorded Sept. 11. The remaining 10 transfers were spread across individual streets, including Melissa Lane, Sunny Hill Drive, Harwood Street, Pleasant Street, Larned Road, Manor Lane, Old Dudley Road, Hartwell Road, and Waite Street, with one transfer recorded on each. Because price data is largely unavailable, a breakdown by price tier cannot be produced for this period.

MARKET NOTES A notable share of this period's recorded transfers list a bank, loan servicer, or mortgage-registration entity as grantor, grantee, or both. These include Bank of America NA and First American Mortgage Solutions LLC (1 Sunny Hill Dr.); Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Radius Financial Group Inc. (13 Harwood St.); Cornerstone Bank (66 Pleasant St.); PennyMac Loan Services LLC (19 Manor Ln.); Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., Countrywide Home Loans Inc. and Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (1 Old Dudley Rd.); Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Prosperity Home Mortgage LLC (53 Main St.); Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Bonnie Caron (13 Waite St.); Millbury Federal Credit Union (106 Depot Rd.); and Citizens Bank NA (1 Depot Rd.). In total, nine of the 14 recorded transfers name a bank, credit union, loan servicer, or mortgage-registration entity as a party to the deed. The registry data does not indicate the reason for these transfers; this report notes only that the pattern appears across a majority of this period's recorded deeds. No bed, bath, or square-footage data is available from deed records, and no property type (single-family, condominium, multi-family) was specified in the data provided.
