Pembroke Sales Split Between Priced Deals And Undisclosed Family Transfers

PEMBROKE -- Ten deeds were recorded in Pembroke over the past month, but only four disclosed a sale price, ranging from $470 to $695 with a median of $544. The rest of the period's activity consisted largely of family and trust transfers that carried no reported consideration.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Plymouth County Registry of Deeds records show 10 total transactions in Pembroke between June 19 and July 18. Of those, four listed a sale price, ranging from $470 to $695, with a median of $544 among the disclosed sales. The other six transfers -- 60 percent of the period's total -- were recorded without a stated price, consistent with intra-family or trust-related transfers rather than open-market sales. With only four priced transactions to draw on, the raw count alone doesn't support a firm read on whether the period was active or quiet; it does show that most recorded activity this period was not a traditional buyer-seller sale.

TOP SALES

117 Pelham St sold for $695, the period's highest disclosed price. F. Scott Fitzgerald and Amanda Fitzgerald sold the property to Grace Alexander, according to the deed.

47 Woodbine Ave sold for $599. Hoang Phuong and Van Phuong sold the property to Molli Browne.

235 Birch St sold for $490. The sellers were listed as Karen A. Dimestico, trustee, and the Mizzoni Family Irrevocable Trust; the buyer was BLR Built LLC.

A Pembroke property held by Jessica Circle LLC sold for $470 to James M. Brown III and Susan M. Brown; the deed record did not list a street address.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

High Street saw two transfers in the period -- 217 High St and 365 High St -- both recorded without a disclosed price and both involving an owner transferring property into a family trust. No other street had more than one recorded transfer. By price tier, all four disclosed sales fell under $700: one between $600 and $700 (117 Pelham St), one between $500 and $600 (47 Woodbine Ave), and two between $400 and $500 (235 Birch St and the Jessica Circle LLC property). The remaining six properties -- 158 W Elm St, 163 Plymouth St, 217 High St, 11 Lisas Ln, 10 Cynthia Ave and 365 High St -- carried no disclosed price and are not reflected in the tier breakdown.

MARKET NOTES

Five of the 10 recorded deeds this period involved a grantor and grantee sharing the same surname, or the same individual, transferring property into a trust: 163 Plymouth St (Deborah E. Tolland to Deborah E. Tolland, trustee), 217 High St (Michael James McMahon and John Anthony McMahon to James M. McMahon, trustee, of the James M. McMahon Living Trust), 10 Cynthia Ave (Gordon Eric Zemotel and Gina Maria Zemotel to themselves), 365 High St (Dianne A. Stanton to Dianne A. Stanton, trustee) and 158 W Elm St (Janet Ohara Ramsay, by attorney, to William James Ohara). None of these five carried a disclosed sale price. Separately, two of the four disclosed sales involved limited liability companies: Jessica Circle LLC as seller and BLR Built LLC as buyer at 235 Birch St, pointing to some investor or builder activity alongside individual buyers. The deed data available does not include property type, square footage or bedroom/bathroom counts, so no price-per-square-foot comparison can be made this period.
