New Salem recorded 13 property deeds between Sept. 11 and Oct. 10, but only three carry a listed sale price so far: $250,000 for 105 West St., $150,000 for 9 South Main St., and $50,000 for 58 Whitaker Rd., putting the median at $150,000.

Several of the period's deeds, including transfers on Elm Street, Fay Road and William Rice Road, moved property within the same family or into a trust, and four deeds involved a bank or credit union as buyer or seller. With most prices still pending, the data available does not yet support a read on whether the market was strong or soft this period.
