Waltham June Median Hits $694,575 With Only Six of 15 Sales Priced

WALTHAM -- A $1,485,000 sale on Dobbins Street topped Waltham's June deed recordings, while the majority of recorded transfers during the period reflected family trust restructurings rather than arm's-length market sales.

• MARKET OVERVIEW
• Fifteen deeds were recorded in Waltham between June 6 and July 5, 2026, but only six carried disclosed sale prices, limiting the scope of market analysis. Among those six priced transactions, sale prices ranged from $398,245 to $1,485,000, with a median of $694,575. The relatively low share of price-disclosed sales — 40% of the total — reflects the prevalence of trust and estate transfers in this recording period, which carry no consideration amount under standard deed recording practice.
• TOP SALES
• The highest-priced transaction was 10 Dobbins St., which sold for $1,485,000 on June 11. Nardone Corp. was the seller; Jeremy Lance Mineweaser was the buyer. At 25 Barnes St., David Campos and Sara Michiru Campos purchased the property from Timothy Colatosti for $980,000, also recorded June 11. Unit 21 at 144 Moody St. changed hands for $721,750 on June 11, with Jenny Gelber selling to Leland Hepler and Catherine Harnist. At 37 Upland Rd., Allyson Rosati and Kyle Richard Bulens purchased from the Mabrow Realty Trust for $667,400 on June 8. The fifth-highest disclosed sale was 28 Hibiscus Ave. at $635,000, recorded June 11; the Finamore estate sold to Dyllan Cole and Kathleen D. Cole.
• NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
• Two transactions were recorded at the same address — 144 Moody St. — though they represent distinct conveyances: Unit 21 sold for $721,750 in an arm's-length transaction, while a separate parking space (Pkg Sp 10) at the same building transferred at no disclosed price, with Jenny Gelber listed as the buyer. The four remaining priced sales were spread across individual streets — Dobbins, Barnes, Upland, and Hibiscus — with no other street-level clustering among disclosed sales. The sole transaction below $500,000 was 240 Linden St. at $398,245, recorded June 9; the structure of that transfer, from trustees to life estate holders sharing the same names, suggests an intra-family estate planning conveyance rather than a market sale. The four sales between $635,000 and $980,000 represent the bulk of conventionally structured transactions this period.
• MARKET NOTES
• Nine of the 15 recorded deeds — 60% — involved transfers to revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts, life estates, or family members, with no disclosed consideration. These include transfers at 45 Malvern St., 23 Berkshire Rd., 56 Harris St., 73 Raffaele Dr., 27 Willard St., 10 Kenmore Ter., 133 Whitman Rd., and one entry with no street address listed. One additional transfer — the Moody Street parking space — also carried no disclosed price. Buyers and sellers in these conveyances share surnames in most cases, consistent with estate planning activity. No square footage data was available in the deed records, so price-per-square-foot comparisons cannot be made. Property types across the priced sales appear to include at least one condominium unit (144 Moody St. Unit 21) alongside what deed records suggest are single-family or multi-family properties on Dobbins, Barnes, Hibiscus, Upland, and Linden streets.
