Wendell Home Prices Range Widely As Two Sales Post Recorded Figures

WENDELL -- Six properties changed hands in Wendell between Sept. 18 and Oct. 17, but only two of those transactions carry a recorded sale price so far, leaving most of the period's market activity still in registry-processing limbo.

MARKET OVERVIEW Six sales were recorded in Wendell during the period, though only two carry a sale price in the registry data so far: $58,305 and $150,000. Based on those two figures, the median stands at $104,152. The remaining four sales show no price yet, which is typical for recently recorded deeds and usually means the figure has not reached the registry's data, not that a price was withheld. With two-thirds of the period's sales still awaiting price data, it is not possible to characterize the overall pace of the market from price alone; six recorded transactions in a town the size of Wendell is a notable count for a one-month window, regardless of pricing.

TOP SALES 3 Wren Gould Rd. sold for $150,000 on Oct. 15. Anne M. Campbell was the seller and Freedom Credit Union the buyer. 35 Cooleyville Rd. sold for $58,305 on Sept. 28. Gloria Kegeles was the seller and the buyer is listed as Redevelopment A. No other sales recorded in this period have a price yet: 22 Center St. (sold Oct. 14, seller Geoffrey T. Richardson and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc.), a Wendell parcel without a listed street address (sold Oct. 13, seller Wendell Solar LLC and Jacob Doody), 240 Farley Rd. (sold Oct. 9, seller Greenfield Savings Bank, buyers Allen T. Walsh and Lori J. Walsh), and 120 Old Egypt Rd. (sold Sept. 21, seller Greenfield Savings Bank, buyers James Slavas and Phyllis Lawrence).

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No two sales in this period share a street name, so no street-level cluster emerges. By price tier among the sales with recorded figures: one sale fell under $100,000 (35 Cooleyville Rd. at $58,305) and one fell between $100,000 and $200,000 (3 Wren Gould Rd. at $150,000). The four remaining sales, at Center Street, Farley Road, Old Egypt Road and an unaddressed Wendell parcel, cannot yet be placed into a price tier because no sale price has been recorded.

MARKET NOTES Beds, baths and square footage are not available in deed records for any of the six sales, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made this period. Greenfield Savings Bank appears as the seller on two separate transactions, 240 Farley Rd. and 120 Old Egypt Rd.; the deed data does not indicate why the bank held these properties before the sales. One transaction involved Wendell Solar LLC as a seller alongside an individual grantor, suggesting a non-residential or mixed-use parcel, though the deed data does not specify property type. With four of six sales lacking price data as of this reporting period, readers should expect updated figures to surface in the registry in the coming weeks.
