West Stockbridge Records 11 June Deeds but Prices Remain Largely Undisclosed

WEST STOCKBRIDGE -- Eleven deeds were recorded in West Stockbridge between May 31 and June 29, 2026, but with sale prices disclosed on only two of those transfers, the period offers limited insight into prevailing market values.

• MARKET OVERVIEW
• Eleven transactions were recorded during the period, ranging in disclosed price from $25,000 to $35,000, with a median of $30,000 among the two priced sales. That median figure is not statistically meaningful given that nine of the 11 transfers carried no disclosed consideration; it reflects only the two transactions where a price was reported to the registry. The volume of 11 recorded deeds in a single month is notable for a small town, but the near-total absence of sale prices limits what the data can reveal about where West Stockbridge property values currently stand.
• TOP SALES
• The highest disclosed price in the period was $35,000, recorded June 15, in a sale from William A. Korte and Lisa J. Korte to Rumplik Group LLC. No street address was included in the deed record for that transaction. The only other disclosed-price transaction was recorded June 11 at 17 Albany Rd., where Kevin Michael Norton and Paige Marie Norton conveyed the property to NBT Bank NA for $25,000; that transfer, from individual sellers to a bank, may reflect a deed-in-lieu or similar arrangement, though the data does not confirm the nature of the transaction.
• NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
• Great Barrington Road saw the most activity of any street, with three recorded transfers: 290 Great Barrington Rd. (two separate deed entries on June 15, both involving the O'Neil family), and 127 Great Barrington Rd. (sold June 12 by David T. Pearlson to Eric Shimelonis and Rebecca Sheir) and 258 Great Barrington Rd. (sold June 8, with David Ott and Isabelle Foster acquiring the property). West Center Road also drew two entries: 139 West Center Rd. and 139 W. Center Rd. were both recorded within one day of each other, June 8 and June 9, with Michael J. Thiemann and Carol A. McKenna appearing as buyers in both; those entries likely represent related transactions on the same parcel. The remaining transfers were scattered across Van Shaack Road, Stockbridge Road, Albany Road, and Moscow Road, each with a single entry and no disclosed price.
• MARKET NOTES
• Several transfers in this period carry the hallmarks of non-arm's-length activity. The two June 15 deeds at 290 Great Barrington Rd. involve the O'Neil family conveying property into and among trustees of the same names, a pattern consistent with an estate-planning or trust transfer. The two West Center Road entries for the same buyer on consecutive days suggest a multi-deed transaction on a single property. The Albany Road transfer to NBT Bank NA at $25,000 follows a pattern seen in lender-related conveyances. None of these observations can be confirmed without additional documentation, and no motivation is assumed. Buyers and sellers researching comparable sales should treat the two disclosed prices with caution given the context of those transactions.
