Recorded Sale Prices In Norwell Deeds Range From $600 To $950 In July

NORWELL -- Plymouth County Registry of Deeds records show nine property transfers in Norwell recorded between July 3 and Aug. 1, but only four of those deeds listed a sale price, leaving most of the period's market activity undocumented in terms of value.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Nine deeds were recorded in Norwell during the period. Of those, four disclosed a consideration amount, ranging from $600 to $950, with a median of $842 among the disclosed sales. The remaining five deeds -- more than half the total -- listed no sale price, which is common for transfers between family members, trusts, or related parties. With only four of nine transactions carrying disclosed values, the recorded price data offers a limited picture of the month's market; the raw count of nine recorded deeds is a modest volume for a single town in a four-week span.

TOP SALES

The highest disclosed sale was 32 Bowsprit Lane, which recorded July 8 for $950. The seller was Catherine E. Bakeberg, trustee, and the Bakeberg Family Living Trust; the buyer was Londonderry Investments LLC.

87 Franklin Road recorded July 15 for $850. The sellers were Seana T. Greene, trustee, and Seana M. Greene, trustee; the buyers were Evan Rutkowski and Caroline A. Smith.

126 Pleasant Street recorded July 15 for $835. The seller was Judith E. Rhoades, trustee (also listed as Judi Rhodes, trustee); the buyer was Blake Adams LLC.

15 Leigh Road recorded July 7 for $600. The sellers were Stephen J. McViney and Maia C. McViney; the buyers were Daniel J. Santiano and Siobhan E. Ward.

No other deeds recorded during the period listed a sale price.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Cross Street saw two transfers in the period: 22 Cross Street (July 13, price not disclosed, Tenaglia family to Antony and Diane Criscuolo) and 161 Cross Street (July 8, price not disclosed, Thompson family to Hannah Taytslin Devine and Michael Devine). No other street had more than one recorded transfer. Among the four disclosed sales, prices clustered between $600 and $950, with no transaction reaching typical single-family market values recorded in this dataset -- the registry entries here reflect the consideration amounts as filed, not necessarily full market sale prices.

MARKET NOTES

Five of the nine recorded transfers involved a trust as grantor or grantee: 87 Franklin Road and 126 Pleasant Street (trust sellers), 79 Norwell Avenue (John C. Lunn transferring to himself as trustee of the Norwell Avenue Realty Trust, no price disclosed), and 32 Bowsprit Lane (trust seller). A sixth transfer, an unaddressed Norwell parcel recorded July 13, moved from Mary Alex to Mary Alex and Maria L. Alex, both sharing a surname, with no price disclosed. Two of the four disclosed sales involved an LLC as buyer -- Londonderry Investments LLC at 32 Bowsprit Lane and Blake Adams LLC at 126 Pleasant Street. Deed records in this dataset do not distinguish property type (single-family, condominium or multi-family), and square footage or bedroom/bathroom counts were not available from the registry data.
