Nominal transfers outnumber sales 3-to-1 in Scituate deed filings
Scituate recorded eight property transfers between July 17 and Aug. 15, but only two carried a market sale price: $985,000 for 52 Highland Crossing and $1,305,000 for 41 First Parish Rd., the period's top sale.
Scituate recorded eight property transfers between July 17 and Aug. 15, but only two carried a market sale price: $985,000 for 52 Highland Crossing and $1,305,000 for 41 First Parish Rd., the period's top sale. The other six transfers were nominal-consideration filings, several moving property into trusts, and are not counted as sales. With just two priced transactions, there isn't enough data to calculate a median or draw conclusions about overall market direction this period. First Parish Road saw both the top sale and a separate nominal trust transfer.
