Sale Prices Span $12,000 To $817,500 In Florida Deed Records

FLORIDA -- Eleven property transfers were recorded at the Northern Berkshire Registry of Deeds for Florida between July 17 and Aug. 15, but only four of those deeds disclosed a sale price, ranging from $12,000 to $817,500.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded 11 deed transfers in the four-week period. Of those, four listed a consideration amount, ranging from $12,000 to $817,500, with a median sale price of $170,563. The remaining seven deeds, nearly two-thirds of the total, did not disclose a price, which is common for deed records and does not necessarily indicate anything unusual about those transactions. With disclosed pricing available for barely more than a third of recorded deeds, the data offers only a partial picture of dollar volume for the period, though the raw count of 11 recorded transfers indicates deed activity continued at a steady pace through late July and early August.

TOP SALES The highest-value transaction was 65 N County Rd, which sold Aug. 4 for $817,500. The deed lists Timothy P. Alexander and Diana M. Alexander as sellers, with Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Longbridge Financial LLC as buyers. The second-highest disclosed sale was 16 Mohawk Trail, which sold July 31 for $259,600, with Melani Mielke listed as seller. No buyer was named on that deed. At 4 Olson Rd, Troy and Courtney Hartlage sold to Adams Community Bank for $81,526 on July 31. The lowest disclosed sale was 107 Monroe Rd, which sold Aug. 5 for $12,000, from seller Delrico Gomes to buyer Julio Ortiz.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Mohawk Trail saw the most deed activity of any street in the period, with three recorded transfers: 16 Mohawk Trail ($259,600, sold July 31), 214 Mohawk Trl (price not disclosed, sold July 30, buyer Brian Wert), and 121 Mohawk Trail (price not disclosed, sold July 30, sellers Christopher K. and Nancy J. Embry, buyer LCLNT LLC). Monroe Road also recorded two transfers: 107 Monroe Rd ($12,000) and 31 Monroe Rd (price not disclosed, sold July 22, seller Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and Advisors Mortgage Group LLC, buyer Robert E. and Pamela K. Horner). By price tier among the disclosed sales, one transaction topped $500,000 (65 N County Rd), one fell between $100,000 and $300,000 (16 Mohawk Trail), and two were under $100,000 (4 Olson Rd and 107 Monroe Rd).

MARKET NOTES No bedroom, bathroom or square footage data was available in the deed records for this period. The 11 recorded deeds show a mix of transaction types beyond typical buyer-seller sales. Two deeds list Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. as grantor or grantee, a designation generally associated with mortgage assignments or lender-related transfers rather than open-market purchases: 65 N County Rd and 31 Monroe Rd. One deed, for 197 Whitcomb Hill Rd, lists Greylock Federal Credit Union as seller and Kathryn R. Gaspardi as buyer, with no price disclosed. A trust-related transfer was also recorded with no address listed, involving the town of Florida and the Bakke Mountain Associates Nominee Trust as seller. A deed for 0 South County Rd lists "Order of Conditions" and Tim Craig as seller with no buyer named and no price disclosed. A transfer at 25 Moores Rd lists Margaret Rose Van Peterson as seller, with no buyer or price listed on the deed.
