SALISBURY — Following property listings on Zillow and similar marketplaces, one will only see properties that are listed by real estate brokerage firms on the multiple listing service. Not included are private or off market sales which can be an important part of the market.
Of the eight real estate transfers in Salisbury in October five of them will not be included on-line as recent sales, nor factored into median price, days on market, or price per square foot sales calculations. These properties can be sold within families, neighbors or business partners, for sale by owner, word of mouth, or sale of listings that have expired or then been cancelled like 7 Holley St.
Five of Salisbury’s eight October transfers fit into this private sale category; however, all property transfers must be recorded which The Lakeville Journal covers monthly with the help of town clerks. Of the three properties publicly offered all three sold at or below list price and all above their appraised value for taxation purposes.
As of Nov. 15, there were 24 homes for sale with two under $500,000 and 18 over a million dollars. The rental market continues to offer opportunities with five unfurnished homes available from $2,400 to $3,600 and 14 seasonal furnished dwellings.
