Sole Disclosed Sale Anchors an Otherwise Price-Silent July in West Boylston

WEST BOYLSTON -- Eleven property transfers were recorded in West Boylston between July 10 and Aug. 8, but only one deed disclosed a sale price, leaving most of the period's market activity without a public dollar figure.

MARKET OVERVIEW The Worcester County Registry of Deeds recorded 11 transfers involving West Boylston property during the period. Of those, only one listed a consideration amount: $350,000, recorded July 16. Because only a single sale carried a disclosed price, the reported price range and median sale price both stand at $350,000, a figure drawn from that one transaction rather than a broader sample. Ten of the 11 records, or roughly 91 percent, listed no sale price. Eleven recorded transfers over four weeks indicates a measurable pace of deed activity, but with price data available for only one transaction, the dataset does not support a broader assessment of whether the market ran hot or cold this period.

TOP SALES Only one of the 11 recorded transfers included a disclosed sale price, so a ranked list of top sales by price cannot be compiled from this dataset. The lone priced transaction: a property in West Boylston sold for $350,000, recorded July 16. The deed lists Zachary G. Casey as seller and Mortgage Research Center LLC and Veterans United Home Loans as buyer; no street address was included in the record. Bed, bath and square footage figures were not available.

The remaining 10 transfers, all price not disclosed, included: 11 Peachtree St. (seller Kevin F. Casey), recorded July 16; 11 Bancroft St. (sellers Cristina Alves Pavesi DePaula and Ledson DePaula), recorded July 15; 24 Winthrop St. (sellers All One Credit Union and Dimos Georgiadis), recorded July 14; 25 Pheasant Hill Run (sellers Stephen J. Kalinowski III and Karen R. Perras), recorded July 14; and 90 Sterling St. (sellers West Boylston Town Treasurer and Mary Ellen Costa), recorded July 10.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN The 11 transfers were spread across 10 different streets, including Peachtree Street, Bancroft Street, Winthrop Street, Pheasant Hill Run, Afra Drive, Maple Street, Pierce Street, Sterling Street, Temple Street and Pinewood Drive, plus one record with no address listed. No street accounted for more than one transfer in this period, so no geographic cluster emerged. A price-tier breakdown is not possible because only one of the 11 transfers carried a disclosed sale price.

MARKET NOTES Property type, bedroom, bathroom and square-footage data were not available in any of the 11 deed records, so no comparison of price per square foot or housing type mix can be made. Two records listed mortgage-related entities as parties: Mortgage Research Center LLC and Veterans United Home Loans appeared as buyer on the July 16 transaction at $350,000, and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Equity Resources Inc. appeared as sellers on the July 13 transfer of 37 Maple St. One transfer, 90 Sterling St., listed the West Boylston Town Treasurer as a seller alongside Mary Ellen Costa. One transfer, 70 Temple St., listed a trustee, C. Jacobsen, as buyer. None of the 11 records showed a buyer and seller sharing a last name, so no same-family trust or estate pattern is evident in this dataset.
