Malden June Median Hits $835,800 as Prices Cluster in Upper Tiers

MALDEN -- A single-family home on Ridgewood Road led Malden's June recording period with a $1,450,000 sale, the highest disclosed price among 16 deeds recorded between May 31 and June 29, 2026. Eight of those 16 transfers carried a disclosed consideration, with the remaining eight reflecting trust formations, estate transfers, and LLC conveyances.

• MARKET OVERVIEW
• Sixteen deeds were recorded in Malden during the period, of which eight disclosed a sale price. The disclosed transactions ranged from $390,000 at the low end to $1,450,000 at the high end, with a median sale price of $835,800. With only half the transfers carrying a disclosed price, the dataset reflects a month in which estate planning, trust transfers, and corporate conveyances were nearly as common as conventional arm's-length sales — a pattern that limits the breadth of market analysis but does not diminish the significance of the transactions that did report prices.
• TOP SALES
• The month's highest recorded sale was 5 Ridgewood Road, which changed hands June 5 for $1,450,000. Sellers Candace Julyan and David Hancock conveyed the property to Richard Alexander Bucher and Hui Wang. At 24 Watts Street, seller Watts Street LLC conveyed the property to Paige Curtis and Erwin Li for $940,000 on June 1. One day earlier, 98 West Border Road sold for $930,000; Scott and Margo Goodrich were the sellers, with Joshua Siu Lim Ng and Jason Thaddeus Gawinski LaJoie the buyers. At 60 Kimball Street, Patrick and Bridget Mulholland sold to Bemnet Abebe Hailemariam and Fitsum Taye for $920,000, also recorded June 1. Rounding out the top five, 177 Cherry Street sold for $751,600 on June 1, with John and Regina Kaufman conveying the property to David Wolfson and Boeun Hwang.
• NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
• Three of the five highest disclosed sales — 24 Watts Street at $940,000, 60 Kimball Street at $920,000, and 177 Cherry Street at $751,600 — were recorded on June 1 and fell in the $750,000–$950,000 range, suggesting activity concentrated in mid-to-upper-tier single-family territory that week. The month's two sub-$500,000 disclosed sales were condominiums: 1 Glenwood Street Unit 4 at $444,000 and 793 Main Street Unit 8 at $390,000, the only condo units with disclosed prices in the dataset. At 25 Leland Street, a $578,500 transfer from First Landing Investments LLC to Indo Renovation Inc stands apart as a transaction between two corporate entities, a pattern also seen at 15 Linwood Street, where Fazio Enterprises Inc conveyed to Linwood Street Malden Property LLC at an undisclosed price. The dataset includes two Linwood Street addresses — 10 Linwood Street Unit 211 and 15 Linwood Street — making it the only street name appearing more than once in the period.
• MARKET NOTES
• Eight of the 16 recorded deeds reflect intra-family or trust-related transfers rather than conventional sales: the Crugnale life estate conveyance, the Cody Family Revocable Trust transfer at 42 Gale Street, the Candelora Family Trust transfer at 10 Linwood Street Unit 211, the Kline trust transfer at 49 Oakland Street, the Loi spousal trust transfer at 24 Marvin Street, and the Hawthorne Street Realty Trust formation at 228 Hawthorne Street. The two corporate-to-corporate transactions at 25 Leland Street and 15 Linwood Street add further complexity to the month's deed mix. Bed, bath, and square footage data are not available from deed records, so price-per-square-foot analysis cannot be performed for this period.
