No sale prices reported on any of Richmond's 13 recorded property deeds

RICHMOND -- The Middle Berkshire Registry of Deeds recorded 13 property transfers in Richmond over the past month, but not a single one listed a sale price, leaving residents unable to gauge dollar values behind the period's most active stretch of activity.

MARKET OVERVIEW Thirteen deeds were recorded in Richmond between June 19 and July 18. None of the 13 included a disclosed consideration amount, so no price range or median sale price can be calculated for the period. Based on the raw transaction count alone, 13 recorded deeds is a notable volume for a town of Richmond's size, though the dataset does not include figures from prior months for comparison.

TOP SALES Because no sale prices were disclosed on any of the 13 deeds, transactions cannot be ranked by price this period. The following are the five most recently recorded transfers for which both a street address and identified parties are available:

Richmond Town acquired property from Thomas and Kim Ruffing, recorded July 9; price not disclosed. Irma Godlin purchased 1310 Lenox Rd. from Citibank NA, recorded July 8; price not disclosed. Regina Hawkey and Jeffrey Vieira acquired 45 Baker St. Ext. from Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., recorded June 29; price not disclosed. Morgan Quigley acquired 2801 State Rd. from Tesla Inc., recorded June 29; price not disclosed. Fayette Ann Reynolds acquired 326 Yokun Rd. from Greylock Federal Credit Union, recorded June 25; price not disclosed.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN State Road saw two separate transfers recorded the same day, June 29: one at 2801 State Rd. involving Tesla Inc. as seller and Morgan Quigley as buyer, and a second at the same address involving sellers Alfredo De La Cruz and Aura Noemi Lopez Jimenez, with no buyer listed in the record. A third State Road property, at 399 State Rd., changed hands June 23, with Colleen and Megan Sullivan as sellers. Chestnut also appears twice in the period's filings: 32 Chestnut Rd. was sold by Diana Lynne Glass to Richmond Town on June 24, the same day a deed was recorded for 32 Chestnut St. with Shane R. Tomashek as seller and no buyer listed. Because no sale prices were disclosed for any property, transactions cannot be grouped by price tier this period.

MARKET NOTES Four of the 13 deeds named a bank or credit union as the seller -- Citibank NA (1310 Lenox Rd.), Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. (45 Baker St. Ext.), and Greylock Federal Credit Union, which appears twice, as seller of both 326 Yokun Rd. and 456 Summit Rd. Several other filings are labeled in the registry as mortgage-related ("MTG") transactions rather than standard sales. Two deeds reflect transfers within the same family or into a trust: at 187 Swamp Rd., Maris Kahn Katsir transferred the property to herself and Shlomo Katsir jointly, and at 78 Birch Ln., Peter H. Gunn transferred ownership to Leslie Gunn as trustee of the Gunn Joint Revocable Trust. The Town of Richmond was the recorded buyer in two transactions, at an unaddressed parcel from Thomas and Kim Ruffing and at 32 Chestnut Rd. from Diana Lynne Glass. No sale prices, square footage, or bedroom/bathroom counts were available in the registry data for any property in this period, and property type (single-family, condominium, or multi-family) was not specified in the deed records.
