Arlington June Home Sales Post $840,000 Median as Prices Hold Firm at Midyear
ARLINGTON -- A sale on Dothan Street led Arlington's early-summer recording period, with 68 Dothan St. changing hands for $1,345,000 — the highest disclosed price among 16 deed transfers recorded between June 6 and July 5, 2026. Of those 16 transactions, eight carried disclosed sale prices ranging from $625,000 to $1,345,000, yielding a median of $840,000.
- MARKET OVERVIEW
- Sixteen deeds were recorded in Arlington during the period, though sale prices were disclosed in only eight of those transfers — exactly half the dataset. Among the eight priced transactions, the full range ran from $625,000 to $1,345,000, with a median sale price of $840,000. The volume of 16 transactions over roughly a month represents a moderate level of activity, though the high share of undisclosed prices limits conclusions about broader pricing trends. All figures reflect only what deed records show.
- TOP SALES
- The period's highest recorded transaction was 68 Dothan St., which sold June 11 for $1,345,000. Jin Hyung Bae and Alice Lee were the sellers; Rohit Nair and Maitreyi Rohit were the buyers. A second transaction recorded June 11 — the address listed only as Arlington with no street identified in the deed data — sold for $986,000; Eileen Lingchen Liao was the seller and Su Jeong Kim and Chung Hyeon Jeong were the buyers. Address information was not available for that sale and is reported as provided. At $850,000, 54 Rawson Rd. sold June 10; the William A. Hinchley Legacy Trust, with John D. Leone as trustee, sold the property to Rawson Road LLC. Two properties tied at $840,000: 541 Summer St., sold June 11 by Robert H. and Erich W. Underwood to Bennett G. Brewer, and 35 Fairmont St. Unit 2, sold June 9 by Fairmont LLC to Connor OBryan. Rounding out the top tier, 11 Russell Pl. Unit 11 sold for $805,000 on June 12; sellers were Deirdre and Matthew Puccetti and the buyer was Paul V. Bergantino.
- NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
- No two sales in the priced dataset share a street name, limiting geographic clustering analysis. By price tier among disclosed sales: one sale exceeded $1 million (68 Dothan St. at $1,345,000); five sales fell between $800,000 and $999,999 (Summer St., Rawson Rd., Fairmont St., Russell Pl., and the unidentified address at $986,000); and two sales came in below $800,000 (10 Lanark Rd. Unit 1 at $713,000 and 106 Forest St. Unit 106 at $625,000). The two lowest-priced transactions were both condominium units, while the top sale on Dothan Street and Rawson Road appear to be non-condo transfers based on the absence of a unit designation.
- MARKET NOTES
- Several of the 16 recorded deeds show hallmarks of intra-family or trust transfers rather than arm's-length sales. At 8 Old Mystic St., Niall J. and Leonie J. Lennon transferred the property to themselves as trustees. At 53 Candia St., Thomas J. and Frances C. Reidy conveyed to themselves as trustees. At 7 Lorraine Ter., Horacio B. Plotkin transferred to a revocable trust with himself as trustee. At 99 Mt. Vernon St., the Fahey family names on both sides of the transaction suggest a familial conveyance, as does 16 Winthrop Rd., where Robert B. McKersie sold to Elizabeth M. McKersie. At 219 Wollaston Ave., Michael F. Tarantino is listed on both sides of the deed, with Karen J. Tarantino added as a grantee. These transfers account for six of the 16 recorded deeds and carry no disclosed prices, which is consistent with non-sale conveyances. The commercial buyer at 54 Rawson Rd. — Rawson Road LLC — and the dual-trust buyer structure at 34 Cypress Rd. (Larkhall Trust and Tobermory Trust) are also worth noting as non-individual purchasers in the dataset.
