Only one of eight recorded Peru deeds discloses a home sale price

PERU -- Eight deed transactions recorded in Peru between July 17 and August 15 show mostly non-market transfers, including bank mortgages and a municipal acquisition, with just one disclosed home sale during the period.

MARKET OVERVIEW Eight deed transactions were recorded in Peru during the period. Only one carried a disclosed sale price: $980,000 for the property at 13 Haskell Rd. Because only one of the eight transactions includes a price, a median cannot be meaningfully calculated for the period, and the raw count of eight recorded deeds should not be read as eight home sales. Price not disclosed for the remaining seven transactions.

TOP SALES 13 Haskell Rd sold for $980,000 on July 29. The seller was listed as Brian Kopinto, trustee, and the Haskell Road Land Trust; the buyers were James Weaver and Twila Weaver. Bed, bath, and square footage figures were not available from deed records. No other transactions in this period had a disclosed sale price.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN David Drive saw the most recorded activity of any street in the period, with three separate transactions: a mortgage discharge at 4 David Dr (recorded August 14, Adams Community Bank to Lewis John T Jr), a transfer at 4 David Dr (recorded August 3, seller Julia Marie Thibodo, no buyer listed), and a mortgage-related filing at 13 David Dr (recorded July 28, from Stephanie Murphy to All In Credit Union). All three lacked disclosed sale prices. The remaining transactions were spread across individual streets: Brookside Road, Stephanie Lane, Kreutzer Road, and one unaddressed easement agreement involving John P. Munch.

MARKET NOTES Of the eight recorded transactions, only one, the Haskell Road sale, represents a disclosed arm's-length home purchase. The other seven include a bank mortgage discharge, a probate/family court petition, an easement agreement, a property transfer without a buyer listed, a mortgage-related filing to a credit union, a mortgage transfer involving UBS Bank USA, and a transfer from an estate to the town of Peru for the Kreutzer Road property. Deed records do not distinguish property type (single-family, condo, multi-family) for these entries, and no square footage data was available to assess price-per-square-foot patterns.
