CAS Automotive launches Damaged Equipment to sell fleets' damaged and end-of-life machines

CAS Automotive launches Damaged Equipment to sell fleets' damaged and end-of-life machines

CAS Automotive has officially launched Damaged Equipment, an on-demand remarketing service that gives fleets, dealers, rental companies and insurers a guaranteed offer on damaged, surplus and end-of-life machines. The service ran as a proof of concept from late 2025. It adds a fixed-offer channel next to auctions and trade-ins, though CAS has not published pilot volumes or pricing.

  • 01A guaranteed offer on a wrecked or worn-out machine is a new reference point fleets can hold against an auction estimate, a dealer trade-in or a parts-out before deciding where a unit goes.
  • 02Damaged Equipment now serves insurers and third-party administrators alongside fleets, dealers and rental companies, which puts one disposition channel in front of every party to a total-loss equipment claim.
  • 03The launch establishes the model and the buyer network but not the results: CAS Automotive has disclosed no volumes, recovery rates or turnaround times from its 2025 pilot, so the first test is a side-by-side quote on a real unit.

Distressed sales are 2% of the housing market, and that should change how contractors plan 2027

Distressed sales are 2% of the housing market, and that should change how contractors plan 2027

Existing home sales fell to 3.98 million in August, but distressed sales remain at just 2% of transactions with prices still rising, signaling an affordability freeze rather than a credit crisis. Residential builders and contractors should plan 2027 capacity around intact homeowner equity, higher inventory creating pre-sale work demand, and regional variations in turnover rather than cutting headcount for a financial downturn.

  • 01Distressed sales at 2% of market (versus roughly one-third during 2008) mean no forced-seller wave or equity destruction, leaving HELOC and cash-out renovation funding intact for contractors
  • 02Supply at 4.9 months and 5.9% year-over-year growth forces sellers to fund pre-sale work on roofs, HVAC, kitchens, and inspections to compete, generating small-ticket trade demand despite lower transaction volume
  • 03Year-to-date sales up 1.6% with 27% all-cash buyers and 15% investor purchases plus strong August wage growth (3.1%) and employment (643,000 jobs since January) support demand in rate-insensitive buyer segments
