Heath's only recorded sale price this period lands at $31,000

HEATH -- Seven properties changed hands in Heath between Sept. 11 and Oct. 10, according to deeds recorded at the Franklin County Registry of Deeds, but only one of those transactions carries a recorded sale price so far.

MARKET OVERVIEW Seven deeds were recorded for Heath properties during the period. Of those, one includes a sale price: $31,000 for 594 Route 8A. Because sale prices typically take about a week to appear in registry data after a deed is recorded, the other six transfers show "price not yet available" rather than a confirmed figure. With only one priced sale, a meaningful price range or median cannot be calculated for the month as a whole; the $31,000 figure reflects that single transaction only. Several of the unpriced transfers involve banks, mortgage servicers, or the town treasurer as sellers, which often reflects foreclosure or tax-title processes rather than traditional market sales.

TOP SALES The only transaction with a recorded price is 594 Route 8A, which sold for $31,000 on Sept. 28. The seller was listed as Treehouse Series Properties V LLC, by attorney, and SN Servicing Corp, attorney; the buyer was William Slavin. Bed, bath, and square footage figures were not available from deed records.

The remaining six transfers, listed by recording date, do not yet show a sale price: - 198 Branch Hill Rd., recorded Oct. 9, from Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. and American Financing Corp. to Nicholas C. Tatro. - An unaddressed Heath parcel, recorded Oct. 5, from John C. Doherty and Judith Doherty; no buyer listed. - 14 South Rd., recorded Oct. 5, from Edmund Bates; no buyer listed. - 156 Colrain Stage Rd., recorded Sept. 30, from T Bank and Traders Trust Co. to Mark E. Bird and Stephanie J. Bird. - 20 Number Nine Rd., recorded Sept. 21, from Greenfield Savings Bank to Joseph M. Del Rosso. - 1 Shawnee Dr., recorded Sept. 21, from the Heath Town Treasurer to Ann S. Pacino and Janet Nolan.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN The seven transfers are spread across six different streets, with no street accounting for more than one transaction. By price tier, only one sale, 594 Route 8A at $31,000, falls under the $500,000 mark with a confirmed price; the other six properties cannot yet be sorted into a price tier because their sale prices are not yet available in registry data.

MARKET NOTES Three of the seven transfers list a bank, mortgage servicer, or loan-related entity as the seller: Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc./American Financing Corp. at 198 Branch Hill Rd., T Bank/Traders Trust Co. at 156 Colrain Stage Rd., and Greenfield Savings Bank at 20 Number Nine Rd. A fourth, 594 Route 8A, involved a seller identified through an attorney alongside SN Servicing Corp. One transfer, 1 Shawnee Dr., came from the Heath Town Treasurer. No bed, bath, or square footage data was available for any property in this period, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made. Deed records did not specify property type (single-family, condo, or multi-family) for any of the seven transactions.
