Gardner Home Sales Mostly Lack Pricing Data in Early Summer Reporting Period

GARDNER -- Ten property transfers were recorded in Gardner between June 26 and July 25, but only one carried a sale price in the registry data as of this report, leaving the broader market picture incomplete for now.

MARKET OVERVIEW Of the 10 recorded transfers, one carried a sale price: $398,860 for a property on Sherman Street. Seven transfers show "price not yet available," which typically means the figure has not yet reached the registry, not that a price was withheld. Two additional transfers were recorded for nominal consideration under $10,000 and are not market sales. With only one priced transaction, a meaningful price range or median cannot be calculated for this period; the $398,860 figure represents a single data point, not a market average. The raw count of 10 recorded transfers is consistent with prior periods, though most price data for this window remains outstanding.

TOP SALES The only transaction with a recorded price was 171 Sherman St., which sold for $398,860 on June 26. The seller was listed as Miriam Machado Gonzalez and Amitael Genao Gonzalez; the buyer was listed as CMG Mortgage Inc. and CMG Home Loans. No bed, bath or square footage data was available for this or any other property in this dataset. The remaining nine recorded transfers, covering addresses on Westford Street, Glenwood Street, Mill Street, Park Street, Pearl Street, Coburn Avenue and Edgell Street, had no price available at the time of this report.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Pearl Street accounted for two of the 10 recorded transfers: a unit at 272 Pearl St. (Unit 8) and a property at 335 Pearl St., neither with a price yet available. All other addresses, including Sherman Street, Westford Street, Glenwood Street, Mill Street, Park Street, Coburn Avenue and Edgell Street, appeared once each in this period's data. With pricing largely unavailable, a tier-based breakdown by sale price is not possible beyond noting the single recorded sale of $398,860.

MARKET NOTES Several of this period's transfers listed mortgage companies or banks as sellers or buyers, including Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., Geneva Financial LLC, Freedom Mortgage Corp., Cornerstone Bank, CMG Mortgage Inc. and Rocket Mortgage LLC. The deed data does not specify the reason for these parties' involvement. One transfer, at 272 Pearl St. Unit 8, involved a condominium unit, identified by its unit designation and a named trust seller, Ridgeword Condominium Trust, with Frin Bechara listed as trustee. Two transfers were recorded for nominal consideration under $10,000 and are not counted as sales: one at 392 Mill St., transferred from Lisa Griffin (also listed as Lisa A. Griffin) to Center for Digestive Wellness PC, and one unaddressed Gardner parcel transferred from Donna Giaqunito and Doris Johnson to Dorothy L. Drisdelle. Dorothy L. Drisdelle also appears as buyer on a separate, price-pending transfer at 335 Pearl St. from seller Alice M. Savalier, though the deed data does not indicate any relationship between the two transactions.
