Springfield Estimate Counts 1,128 Homes With Deceased Owners

Unresolved ownership can leave vacant homes stalled, making repairs or sales difficult to pursue. Gerry McCafferty, who works on Springfield's housing policy, said unresolved ownership issues are complicating the Maynard Street property's path forward, according to MassLive. Dina Fein, a former Massachusetts Housing Court judge who began helping nonprofits and municipalities redevelop vacant homes in 2021, described a recurring connection between vacancy, deterioration, and complicated ownership. “There seems to be overlap between vacant, abandoned, deteriorated properties” and homes tied up in probate, informal family ownership, or poorly documented transfers, Fein said, per the same report.

However, Amherst voters skewed substantially more toward Democrats than the state at large and joined the blue tidal wave that saw Democrats chalk up resounding, and often shocking, wins across the nation.

A governor who shows up for the Berkshires

It is one thing for a governor to know where the Berkshires are. It is another to understand what it takes to live here. I first encountered Maura Healey in January 2020, when I was serving on the Great Barrington Selectboard. I had traveled to the State House to testify on a home rule petition concerning the return of horse racing to the Great Barrington Fairgrounds.
