Two Of Eleven Hadley Property Transfers Disclose Prices Ranging From $45,000 To $70,000

HADLEY -- The Hampshire County Registry of Deeds recorded 11 property transfers in Hadley between June 26 and July 25, but only two included a disclosed sale price, limiting what can be said about the town's overall market this period.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Eleven deeds were recorded in Hadley during the period. Of those, two disclosed a sale price: $45,000 and $70,000, for a median of $57,500 based on those two transactions. The remaining nine transfers -- which include bank and mortgage-servicer transactions, a family trust transfer, and an estate-related filing -- were recorded without a disclosed consideration amount, which is common for these deed types. Because disclosed pricing covers fewer than a fifth of the period's recorded transfers, the price range and median above describe only those two sales, not the Hadley market as a whole. No comparison to prior months or to county- or state-level figures is available in this dataset.

TOP SALES

130 West St. sold for $70,000, recorded June 26. The seller was Mt Warner LLC; the buyer was Investment Property Exchange Services Inc. Bed, bath and square footage figures are not available from deed records.

24 Maple Ave. sold for $45,000, recorded July 1. The seller was Sharon Marie Dion; the buyer was Freedom Credit Union. No other bed, bath or square footage data was provided.

The remaining nine recorded transfers in the period did not disclose a sale price and are not ranked here.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

West Street saw three separate transfers during the period: 109 West St., 111 West St. and 130 West St., recorded June 26 and June 30. Only the 130 West St. transfer disclosed a price.

Rocky Hill Road had two transfers: 127 Rocky Hill Rd. and 154 Rocky Hill Rd., both recorded June 30. Neither disclosed a price.

The remaining transfers were single, scattered addresses: 24 Maple Ave., 45 Comins Rd., 282 Bay Rd., 1 High Meadow Rd., 1 Kozera Ave., and one entry listed only as "Hadley, MA" without a street address. Of the two disclosed prices, one falls below $500,000 ($45,000) and one falls below $500,000 ($70,000); no transfers in this dataset disclosed a price above $500,000.

MARKET NOTES

Several of the period's transfers involved banks, credit unions or mortgage servicers as either the seller or the buyer: Bankesb (127 Rocky Hill Rd.), Westfield Bank (111 West St.), Loan Association of Cleveland (154 Rocky Hill Rd.), Traders Trust Co./T Bank (1 High Meadow Rd.), Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems/MERS (1 Kozera Ave.), and Freedom Credit Union as buyer (24 Maple Ave.). These transactions are consistent with lender-related or mortgage-servicing transfers rather than traditional owner-to-owner sales, though the data does not indicate the reason for any individual transfer.

One transfer was a trust transaction within the same family: Edward J. Harrop transferred a Hadley property to Edward J. Harrop and Lynda J. Harrop as trustees, recorded June 30. Another entry, for 109 West St., involved the estate of Alvin M. Hall and an affidavit regarding estate tax. A separate entry for 282 Bay Rd. was recorded as a declaration of homestead rather than a conventional sale.

No square footage, bedroom, bathroom or property-type (single-family, condominium, multi-family) data was available in this dataset, so no price-per-square-foot or property-type comparisons can be made.
