Three Priced Sales Range From $50,000 To $275,000 In Pittsfield

PITTSFIELD -- Eleven property transfers were recorded at the Middle Berkshire Registry of Deeds for Pittsfield between Sept. 18 and Oct. 17, but only three carried a sale price as of this writing, with the remaining eight expected to post figures in the coming days as the registry processes consideration amounts.

MARKET OVERVIEW Eleven sales were recorded during the period. Among the three transactions with a posted price, figures ranged from $50,000 to $275,000, with a median of $80,000. With eight of 11 deeds still showing no recorded price, the full scope of dollar activity for the period cannot yet be assessed from the available data. The raw count of 11 recorded deeds reflects a typical reporting volume for the registry, though price data lagging on most transactions limits conclusions about market pace this period.

TOP SALES 53 Greenings Ave sold for $275,000, the highest recorded price of the period. The seller was listed as David P. Brien and Rebecca L. Brien, and the buyer was Pittsfield Cooperative Bank. 16 Glenn Dr sold for $80,000; Kenneth P. Ferris and Kristin L. Ferris were listed as sellers, with Pittsfield Cooperative Bank as buyer. 891 North St sold for $50,000, with Matthew P. Gaylord listed as seller and Greylock Federal Credit Union as buyer. Bed, bath and square footage figures were not available in the deed records for any of these properties.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Two separate deeds were filed for 53 Greenings Ave during the period: the $275,000 sale to Pittsfield Cooperative Bank, and a second filing showing a transfer from Patricia E. Brien to David P. Brien, with price not yet available. Meadowview Drive also saw two filings, at 82 Meadowview Dr and 88 Meadowview Dr, both involving sellers with the McCabe surname; prices for both are not yet available. The remaining recorded transfers, at 891 North St, 28 Hopewell Dr, 290 Benedict Rd, 57 Alba Ave and 535 Tyler St, were spread across individual addresses with no shared street pattern. One deed listed no specific street address, recording only "Pittsfield, MA," with Richard Mangiardi as seller and Joseph Massaro, trustee of the MEM Family Trust, as buyer; price not yet available.

MARKET NOTES Three of the 11 recorded deeds list a bank or credit union as the buyer: Pittsfield Cooperative Bank acquired both 53 Greenings Ave and 16 Glenn Dr, and Greylock Federal Credit Union acquired 891 North St. The City of Pittsfield is listed as the buyer of 535 Tyler St, with Nikunj Saluja and Nipun Saluja as sellers; price not yet available. The transfer at 290 Benedict Rd involved a seller listed as Moira E. Brophy, trustee, and the Moira E. Brophy Revocable Trust, consistent with a trust-based transfer. The two Meadowview Drive filings and the two Greenings Avenue filings both involve matching family surnames among sellers, consistent with transfers within the same family, though the deed records do not indicate the reason for either transfer. No bed, bath or square footage data was available for any property in this period's dataset, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made, and property type (single-family, condo or multi-family) could not be determined from the records provided.
