Boston, Massachusetts · Established 2013
Maple REO Advisors manages bank-owned and distressed residential assets for lenders, servicers and private investors across New England — preservation, valuation, compliance reporting and resale, handled by one accountable team.
Who we are
Maple REO Advisors was founded by William Martinez after fifteen years spent inside default servicing operations, where he watched good assets lose value to slow inspections, missed cure dates and vendors who never picked up the phone. The firm was built to remove those failure points.
We are deliberately mid-sized. Every client works with a named asset manager who knows the file, the municipality, the sanitary code inspector and the contractor who last touched the roof. We publish our own photographs, our own scopes of work and our own cost estimates — nothing is white-labelled from a national vendor network.
From our office on Maple Avenue we cover Greater Boston, the South Shore, Worcester County, the Merrimack Valley and, through vetted regional partners, the wider New England market.

What we do
Most clients engage us for the full lifecycle, but every service below can be contracted independently under a written scope with fixed, per-asset pricing.
End-to-end ownership of the asset from the moment title vests. We take custody of keys, utilities, taxes, HOA dues, insurance placement and municipal registrations, then drive the file to a documented disposition decision.
Details
Physical protection of the asset. Securing, debris removal, winterisation, lawn and snow, and repair scopes priced line by line against a published rate card rather than lump-sum estimates.
Details
Independent pricing opinions and a second set of eyes on third-party BPOs. We reconcile condition, comparable selection and market absorption before you commit to a list price.
Details
Listing, negotiation and closing coordination through our Massachusetts-licensed brokerage, with professional photography, floor plans and a written marketing plan for every asset.
Details
Careful, lawful resolution of occupancy. We prioritise negotiated relocation over litigation, and coordinate closely with your counsel where court action is unavoidable.
Details
Documentation that survives an audit. Every action is logged, time-stamped and reportable in the format your examiners, investors or board expect.

Recent work
Representative engagements. Addresses are withheld under client confidentiality; figures are rounded.
Vacant 14 monthsBoston, MA
Bank-owned two-family with water damage across the second floor and an open building violation. We secured the property within eight hours of assignment, negotiated the violation down to a compliance order, and completed a $46,000 scope covering roof, plumbing risers and unit turnover.
Occupied at assignmentQuincy, MA
Occupied post-foreclosure asset resolved through a negotiated cash-for-keys agreement in nineteen days, avoiding a summary process filing. Cosmetic-only make-ready followed, and the property sold to an owner-occupant buyer.
HOA arrearsBoston, MA
Condominium unit carrying $18,400 in association arrears and a pending lien. We negotiated a settled payoff, cleared the municipal lien certificate, and staged the unit for a spring listing window.
Why owners stay with us
In their words
“We moved eleven files to Maple after a national vendor missed three consecutive inspection cycles. Every one of those files was current within a month, and the photo documentation is the best we receive from any partner.”
Default Servicing ManagerRegional savings bank, Greater Boston
“William quoted a $34,000 rehab, delivered at $31,800, and the property appraised above our reserve. He also told us plainly which two units were not worth renovating. That honesty is the reason we keep calling.”
PrincipalPrivate note fund, Providence RI
“Their monthly reporting slots straight into our audit file. In two examinations we have never had a documentation exception on an asset Maple managed.”
