Broker coverage for servicers, asset managers, banks, credit unions and institutional owners across Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York — from assignment through closing.
Zack DeCaro has spent more than a decade working REO and distressed assets — valuing them, clearing them, marketing them and closing them.
Zack DeCaro has worked 1,000+ REO assets listed through Property Works New England and completed 1,500+ BPOs, with experience across government, GSE, bank and servicer assets and for institutional sellers, servicers, attorneys and asset managers. A portion of these assets were listed under the broker of record at Property Works New England.
Performance figures shown are overall averages across the REO platform scorecards Zack works on. They represent historical results across past assignments and are not a guarantee of future results. Individual asset outcomes vary with condition, occupancy, title, market and investor requirements.
Each category below is handled directly or coordinated on the asset manager's behalf, in line with client instructions and portal requirements.
Separate from listing assignments, Zack takes on diligence and advisory engagements for note buyers, funds and small institutional holders who need someone on the ground before a trade closes — or oversight after it does.
Non-performing loan & default collateral services
Standard operating targets measured from the assignment date. Each client's service-level agreement and task deadlines take precedence over the targets below.
Occupied files move along a defined path. Cash for keys and relocation assistance are performed only with client authorization, and eviction-related work is coordinated with the client and the appropriate legal professionals.
Zack DeCaro is a licensed real estate broker, not an attorney, and does not provide legal services or legal advice. Eviction and possession matters are handled by the client's counsel.
Default-servicing and loss-mitigation departments seeking local broker coverage in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island or the Westchester and Rockland County markets can contact Zack directly.
License type and coverage area for each state are listed exactly as issued. Broker and salesperson licenses are shown separately.
Rhode Island and New York services are provided under a salesperson license through the sponsoring brokerage. Connecticut and Massachusetts assignments are held at the broker level.
Nick DeCaro works alongside Zack on REO files, covering showings, occupancy follow-up, vendor access and buyer-side communication so assets keep moving when Zack is in the field.
License copies, E&O coverage, W-9 and references are available on request.
The operational habits that keep an REO file clean: fast acknowledgment, tracked deadlines, documented work, and issues escalated before they become delays. Support staff assist with file administration and vendor follow-up, and licensed buyer agents cover showings and buyer inquiries, but Zack and Nick work every asset directly.
Beyond MLS syndication, every asset is pushed to active social media channels and to a buyer list built and curated over more than 10 years — investors, owner-occupants and repeat cash buyers who move on bank-owned and distressed property. The list keeps growing with every assignment.
More than 1,500 BPOs and valuations completed. Every opinion is grounded in real comparable-sales analysis, current property condition and local market dynamics — not an automated estimate. Standard turnaround is 48 hours, with interior inspection when the property is vacant.
