Halifax Home Sale Prices Range From $410 To $840 In Deed Records

HALIFAX -- Eleven property transfers were recorded in Halifax between June 26 and July 25, with sale prices ranging from $410 to $840 among the eight transactions that disclosed a price. Three of the eleven were trust or estate-related transfers within the same family, a pattern more common than usual in this period's deed records.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Plymouth County Registry of Deeds records show 11 total property transfers in Halifax during the period, with eight disclosing a sale price and three recorded without one. Disclosed prices ranged from $410 to $840, with a median sale price of $571. The raw count of 11 recorded transfers over the roughly four-week period does not, by itself, indicate whether the period was more or less active than prior months, since comparative data is not available.

TOP SALES

The highest-priced transaction was 60 Thompson St Lot 1, which sold for $840 on July 7. BLR Built LLC was the seller; Ryan Holman and Victoria Holman were the buyers. The second-highest sale was 75 Crystal Lake Rd, which sold for $755 on June 29, with David H. Gustafson and Denise M. Gustafson as sellers and Maureen Niak as buyer. Third was 20 Aldana Rd, which sold for $669 on July 14; sellers were Grant W. Presby and Geraldine A. Presby, and buyers were Michael C.B. Burke and Vanessa E. Burke. Fourth was 53 Colby Dr, which sold for $623 on July 16, with Laurie Wynne and Joseph Owen Wynne Sr. as sellers and Sean Wilson as buyer. Fifth was 76 Brandeis Cir, which sold for $520 on June 29; sellers James F. Keegan and Ann M. Keegan transferred the property to David J. Keegan and Karla M. Martinez Estrada.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

No street in this period's dataset had more than one recorded sale, so no street-level cluster emerged. Grouped by price tier: two sales fell under $500 -- 22 Madison Rd at $410 and a property listed only as Halifax, MA at $420. Four sales fell between $500 and $700 -- 76 Brandeis Cir ($520), 3 Holmes St ($510), 53 Colby Dr ($623) and 20 Aldana Rd ($669). Two sales exceeded $700 -- 75 Crystal Lake Rd ($755) and 60 Thompson St Lot 1 ($840). The remaining three transfers -- 188 Oak St, 29 Fireflay Rd and 9 Cross St -- did not disclose a price.

MARKET NOTES

Four of the 11 recorded transfers, or roughly 36%, involved transactions where the grantor and grantee share a family name or where the transfer moved a property into a trust held by the same individual. These include 188 Oak St, where Erica A. Beaudry (also recorded as Erica A. Walling) transferred the property to herself; 29 Fireflay Rd, where Stephen M. Walley and Michele K. Walley transferred the property to themselves as trustees; 9 Cross St, where Paul E. Doucette Jr. transferred the property into the Paul E. Doucette Jr. Revocable Trust; and 76 Brandeis Cir, where James F. and Ann M. Keegan transferred the property to David J. Keegan and Karla M. Martinez Estrada. None of these four disclosed a sale price except Brandeis Circle. Bedroom, bathroom and square-footage data were not available from the deed records reviewed, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons could be made, and property type (single-family, condominium or multi-family) was not specified in the available data.
