Harvard's Lone Disclosed Sale Sets $372,875 Benchmark For The Month

HARVARD -- Seven property transfers were recorded in Harvard between June 19 and July 18, 2026, but only one deed listed a sale price, leaving most of the month's activity undocumented in dollar terms.

MARKET OVERVIEW The Worcester County Registry of Deeds recorded seven Harvard property transfers during the period. Only one of the seven listed a sale price: $372,875, recorded June 24. Because that is the sole disclosed figure, it also stands as both the low and high end of the price range and the median. The remaining six deeds carried no listed consideration, which is common for certain transfer types, including trust, estate and financial-institution transactions. Based on the raw count alone, seven recorded deeds in a one-month span reflects a modest but steady pace of activity for Harvard's market; price trends cannot be assessed given the limited disclosure.

TOP SALES The only transaction with a disclosed price did not include a street address in the deed record. It sold for $372,875 on June 24. The seller was listed as Sylvain Marie Ruth and Michel Max Joseph Jean; the buyer was listed as Bank of America NA and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc.

The remaining six recorded transfers did not disclose a sale price: 87 Ayer Road (recorded June 24, seller Harvard Conservation Trust and Ashe Gina, trustee); 222 Still River Road (recorded June 24, sellers Ratcliffe Christopher Thomas and Ratcliffe Taylor Diane); 16A Pine Hill Way (recorded June 24, seller Pine Hill Village LLC); 94 Poor Farm Road (recorded June 23, seller Collins Mark T); 39 Jackson Road (recorded June 23, sellers VulcanForms Inc and Jackson LLC); and 34 Ridgewood Road (recorded June 22, sellers Fall River Five Cents Savings Bank and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc). Buyer names were not provided in the deed data for these six transactions.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN The seven transfers were spread across six named streets -- Ayer Road, Still River Road, Pine Hill Way, Poor Farm Road, Jackson Road and Ridgewood Road -- plus one deed with no listed address. No street had more than one recorded transfer during the period, so no geographic clustering is evident in this data set. By price tier, one sale falls under $500,000 ($372,875); the price tier of the remaining six sales cannot be determined because no consideration amount was recorded.

MARKET NOTES Six of the seven deeds involved at least one non-individual party as seller or buyer. Harvard Conservation Trust transferred the 87 Ayer Road property to a trustee. Pine Hill Village LLC appears as seller on the 16A Pine Hill Way transfer. VulcanForms Inc, an industrial entity, appears as a seller alongside Jackson LLC on the 39 Jackson Road transfer. Fall River Five Cents Savings Bank appears as seller on the 34 Ridgewood Road transfer, and Bank of America NA appears as buyer, alongside Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc, on the one priced sale of the period. Beyond the presence of these institutional and LLC parties, the deed data does not indicate property type (single-family, condominium or multi-family) for any of the seven transfers, and no square-footage or price-per-square-foot figures are available to identify outliers. With sale prices disclosed for only one of seven transfers, this month's data supports observations about transfer volume and party types but not about overall price trends in Harvard's market.
