Team Zingales Realty

Team Zingales Realty carries a 5-star Google profile built on 162 ratings, one of the deeper review histories of any real estate outfit working the Merrimack Valley. The team operates from 240 Pleasant St in Methuen and says it is co-owned by team founder Joe Zingales and broker Rosanna Zingales-Lopez, with Matteo Zingales running operations. Its Massachusetts real estate broker license is active. The company describes itself as a residential team representing both buyers and sellers, and lists a service area that runs from Methuen, Lawrence, Haverhill, Lowell, North Andover, Dracut and Amesbury into southern New Hampshire towns including Salem, Windham, Derry, Londonderry and Manchester. It is also listed as a member of the Methuen Chamber of Commerce. What sellers say most often is that the team handled a complicated or emotionally difficult sale without the client having to chase anyone. A first-time seller in the last few months credited Leah DeMelo and Rosanna Zingales-Lopez with walking her through the process and supplying referrals, describing them as communicative and patient. Another recent client said Rosanna and her team turned a difficult estate sale into a better outcome than expected. Buyers echo the same theme of availability: a July reviewer said their agent kept them in the loop the whole way through and was always reachable. Those accounts sit on top of a track record of 145 reviews stretching back to 2022, consistently positive across four sources. One thing is worth understanding before reading the star count at face value. Several recent five-star entries are not from clients at all: one is from a mortgage lender describing collaborating on a Zingales listing, and a cluster from late February comes from people who say they are exploring a real estate career and learning about the industry from the team's agents. One of those February entries was posted with its template placeholders still in the text, including the instruction to insert an agent's name. Those entries inflate the volume without saying anything about how a house sale went. The self-reported agent and broker license numbers on the company's own site cover individual agents in both Massachusetts and New Hampshire; only the Massachusetts broker registration has been checked against the state registry here. This is a reasonable call for a Merrimack Valley or southern New Hampshire homeowner who wants a team with real transaction depth and agents who answer the phone, particularly on estate sales and first-time purchases. Ask which agent on the team will actually run your transaction, since the praise attaches to named individuals rather than the office, and confirm that agent's own license before signing.
