All five Pelham deed transfers this month still await recorded sale prices

PELHAM -- Five property transfers were recorded at the Hampshire County Registry of Deeds for Pelham between Sept. 25 and Oct. 24, but none of the five carries a sale price in the registry data as of this writing.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Five sales were recorded during the period. No consideration amount has yet appeared for any of the five transactions, so a price range and median cannot be calculated this month. Sale prices typically appear in registry data within about a week of recording, so figures for transactions recorded later in the period, particularly the Oct. 13 and Oct. 14 filings, may still be forthcoming. Based on count alone, five recorded transfers is a modest volume for a one-month period in a small town like Pelham.

TOP SALES

Because no sale prices are available for any of the five transactions, they cannot be ranked by price this month. All five are listed below with available details

• A Pelham property (street address not specified in the deed entry) transferred Oct. 14 from seller Patrick C. Cobbs to buyers Mukunda Feldman and Kylie C. Feldman. Price not yet available.
• 95 Packardville Road transferred Oct. 13 from Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. (MERS) to buyer Thomas Stelzer. Price not yet available.
• 42 Boyden Road transferred Oct. 8, with sellers listed as Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Countrywide Home Loans Inc. No buyer name was provided in the deed data. Price not yet available.
• 16 North Valley Road transferred Oct. 6 from seller UMass Five College Federal Credit Union to buyer Patricia Schumm. Price not yet available.
• 54 Meeting House Road transferred Sept. 29 from seller Guy G. Pettit, as trustee, to the town of Pelham. Price not yet available.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

No street appears more than once among the five recorded transfers, so there is no street-level clustering this period. The five properties are spread across different roads: an unspecified Pelham address, Packardville Road, Boyden Road, North Valley Road and Meeting House Road. With no sale prices available, transactions cannot be grouped into price tiers this month.

MARKET NOTES

Three of the five recorded transfers, at 95 Packardville Road, 42 Boyden Road and 16 North Valley Road, list a mortgage lender or loan servicer, MERS, Countrywide Home Loans Inc. or UMass Five College Federal Credit Union, as the seller. That pattern is consistent with bank-involved or post-foreclosure transfers, though the deed data does not specify the circumstances of each sale. One transfer, at 54 Meeting House Road, involved a trustee, Guy G. Pettit, conveying property to the town of Pelham itself, a municipal acquisition rather than a typical private sale. The Boyden Road entry is also notable for listing no buyer name in the available data. No bedroom, bathroom or square-footage figures were available for any of the five properties, as that information is not part of standard deed records. Because none of the five transactions includes a recorded price, no price-per-square-foot or price-tier analysis is possible this month.
