New Marlborough Sale Price Data Remains Scarce Across Eight July Deed Transfers

NEW MARLBOROUGH -- Eight property transfers were recorded in New Marlborough between July 10 and Aug. 8, but only one included a disclosed sale price, limiting what can be said about the broader market this period.

MARKET OVERVIEW Eight deeds were recorded in New Marlborough during the period. Of those, only one, the July 13 transfer of 108 New Marlboro Southfield Rd for $820,000, included a disclosed consideration amount. Because just one of eight transfers reported a price, the resulting price range and median, both $820,000, reflect that single transaction rather than a broader distribution across the market. The raw count of eight recorded transfers shows deed activity continued through the period, but the near-total absence of price data means the period cannot be characterized as active or quiet based on value alone.

TOP SALES 108 New Marlboro Southfield Rd sold July 13 for $820,000. The sellers were Rita Marie Hennessy and Sean J. Palmer; the buyers of record were Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and PrimeLending. No other transfer recorded in this period disclosed a sale price, so no additional transactions can be ranked by value. The other seven recorded transfers, in order of recording date, were: 296 Brewer Hill Rd (July 14), 107 Berkshire Woods Rd (July 13), 117 Norfolk Rd (July 10), a Goodnow family transfer recorded without a street address (July 10), 37 Pine St. (July 10), 79 Keyes Hill Rd (July 10) and 185 Keyes Hill Rd (July 10), all with price not disclosed.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Keyes Hill Road accounted for two of the eight recorded transfers. At 79 Keyes Hill Rd, Soil Holding LLC transferred the property to Berkshire National Resources Council Inc. and New Marlborough Land Trust Inc. on July 10. At 185 Keyes Hill Rd, Carleton T. and Olivia T. Goodnow appear as sellers on the same date, with no buyer of record listed. The remaining six transfers were spread across six separate locations: Brewer Hill Road, New Marlboro Southfield Road, Berkshire Woods Road, Norfolk Road, Pine Street, and one entry recorded without a street address. None of these six carried a disclosed price, so no price-tier grouping beyond the single $820,000 sale is possible with this data.

MARKET NOTES Loan servicers and financial institutions appear as sellers or buyers in several of the period's deeds: Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and PrimeLending on the 108 New Marlboro Southfield Rd transfer; NBT Bank NA as seller on the 107 Berkshire Woods Rd transfer to Harley J. Dean; and LoanCare LLC and Lakeview Loan Servicing LLC as sellers on the 117 Norfolk Rd transfer to Matthew Wilson. The 37 Pine St. transfer moved the property from Paul D. and Ayren Pfeifer to Paul D. Pfeifer Tr. and Ayren M. Pfeifer Tr., a trust transfer within the same family. The 79 Keyes Hill Rd transfer conveyed the property from Soil Holding LLC to two conservation-focused entities, Berkshire National Resources Council Inc. and New Marlborough Land Trust Inc. Two entries, the 185 Keyes Hill Rd transfer and a transfer recorded without a street address, list Carleton T. and Olivia T. Goodnow as sellers with no buyer of record and no price, an unusual gap in this data set. Deed records for this period do not indicate property type, and beds, baths and square footage are not available from any of the eight transfers.
