Egremont deed data shows just one disclosed sale price in late July

EGREMONT -- Eleven deeds were recorded for Egremont properties between July 10 and Aug. 8, according to Southern Berkshire Registry of Deeds records, but sale prices were disclosed in only one of those transactions, limiting what can be said about the town's overall market activity this period.

MARKET OVERVIEW

The registry recorded 11 property transfers in Egremont during the period. Of those, only one included a disclosed sale price: $155,000 for 19 Baldwin Hill Rd. Because just one of 11 transactions carried a listed price, the data does not support a meaningful price range or median beyond that single figure, and it cannot support a determination of whether the month was active or quiet based on price trends alone. The raw count of 11 recorded deeds is the only volume indicator available from this dataset.

TOP SALES

19 Baldwin Hill Rd sold for $155,000 on July 22. The deed lists Christine Baral and Jerry Baral as sellers; no buyer name was included in the record. Bed, bath and square-footage figures were not available from the deed data.

No other transaction in this period included a disclosed sale price, so no further transactions can be ranked by price. The remaining 10 recorded deeds, listed by recording date, were: 21 Taconic Ln (July 27, Stephen P. Ide and Carol A. Ide as both seller and buyer of record); an unaddressed Egremont parcel (July 23, seller Egremont Town Assessors, buyer Stuart R. Burdsall); 7 Pumpkin Hollow Rd (July 22, sellers James A. Weber and Teri M. Weber); 3 Second St (July 22, seller Mark N. Roggen); 22 Sheffield Rd (July 22, sellers William J. Powers and Mark J. Lane); 42 Mount Washington Rd (July 21, sellers Maria Martin and Longbridge Financial LLC); 171 Egremont Plain Rd (July 16, seller Community Development Corp of South Berkshire Inc., buyer NBT Bank NA); 65 Jug End Rd (July 13, seller Douglas Alan Weaver Sr., recorded as trustee); 62 Jug End Rd (July 13, sellers Douglas A. Weaver Sr. and Douglas W. Weaver, buyer recorded as the Douglas Alan Weaver Sr. Revocable Living Trust); and 4 Fisher Ln (July 10, seller Karen Berger). Buyer names were not listed in the deed data for several of these transactions.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Jug End Road accounted for two of the 11 transfers, at 62 and 65 Jug End Rd, both recorded July 13 and both involving Douglas Alan Weaver Sr. as a party. No other street had more than one recorded transfer in this period. By price tier, only one transaction can be placed: the $155,000 sale on Baldwin Hill Road falls under $500,000. The other 10 transactions cannot be sorted into price tiers because no sale price was disclosed.

MARKET NOTES

Ten of the 11 recorded deeds, or roughly 91%, did not include a disclosed sale price, which is the dominant pattern in this period's data and limits any price-based analysis of the Egremont market. Property type (single-family, condominium or multi-family) is not specified in the deed data, so no breakdown by type is possible.

Two transactions show the same parties or related parties on both sides of the deed. At 21 Taconic Ln, Stephen P. Ide and Carol A. Ide are listed as both seller and buyer. At 62 Jug End Rd, sellers Douglas A. Weaver Sr. and Douglas W. Weaver transferred the property to the Douglas Alan Weaver Sr. Revocable Living Trust, with Douglas Alan Weaver Sr. also listed as trustee; the neighboring 65 Jug End Rd deed lists Douglas Alan Weaver Sr. and the same trust as seller. These are consistent with within-family or trust-restructuring transfers; the deed data does not indicate the reason for either transfer. One additional transaction, an unaddressed Egremont parcel, lists the Egremont Town Assessors as seller and Stuart R. Burdsall as buyer.
