New York
Pre-Foreclosure

New York runs the longest foreclosure clock in the country. A lis pendens can sit for over a year, so you reach owners with real time to work the deal.

New York is judicial, so foreclosure starts with a lis pendens and a court case, and a mandatory settlement conference stretches the timeline past a year. That long window is an advantage: months, sometimes more, to reach the owner while they still hold title. Skip-traced, DNC-scrubbed, pulled fresh. Filter by county or ZIP across all 62 counties. $0.22 a row, $0.50 minimum, no subscription.

The New York window

The longest judicial clock in the country

New York foreclosures run through the courts under the RPAPL, with a mandatory settlement conference. Three public stages, and our list is the first, with by far the most time to work the deal.

Your list
Stage 1 · lis pendens
Notice of pendency

The lender files a lis pendens (notice of pendency) and a summons and complaint in court. The owner has 20 to 30 days to answer. Owner still on title, with the longest working window in the country.

Stage 2 · settlement conference
Court-mandated

A settlement conference is required within 60 days of proof of service for owner-occupied homes. The case can sit here for months, with the owner still on title and motivated.

Stage 3 · judgment & sale
Auction / REO

After a judgment of foreclosure and sale, the property goes to auction. Owner gone. The whole process often runs around 15 months, far longer if contested.

Who works New York pre-foreclosure

The longest-window judicial market

New York timelines give you a year or more, not weeks, to reach the owner and structure a deal. Four buyer types work it four different ways.

Cash-buyer wholesalers

14-day-close wholesale

The core buyer. Cash offer around 60-70% ARV, owner avoids a foreclosure on their credit report. Needs hard-money or private-capital backing.

Loss-mit specialists

Short-sale + DIL

Negotiate a discounted payoff with the lender on the owner behalf. Lower margin per deal, more deals per list.

Hard-money lenders

Bridge loan to cure

Lend enough to cure the default, take a first-lien position, refi out later. Low conversion, high ticket.

Defense attorneys

Foreclosure defense

Owners hit with a default notice are actively searching for help, and direct attorney outreach at this window converts well.

Best for

  • Wholesalers who want the longest possible working window
  • Loss-mitigation and short-sale services during the litigation
  • Hard-money and bridge lenders on New York equity
  • Foreclosure-defense attorneys answering a filed complaint

Not for

  • Post-sale REO or referee-deed tracking (owner already gone)
  • Buyers who need the index number, lis pendens date or auction date in the file
  • Anyone who wants a forced monthly subscription bundle
  • List-renters expecting exclusive, single-seat data
How New York foreclosure works

The filed-lis-pendens signal, not a soft-proxy guess

Most "pre-foreclosure" lists are dressed-up proxies: 90+ days late plus high loan-to-value. New York gives a clean court-filed signal, and we use it.

Judicial, notice of pendency

New York forecloses through the courts under the RPAPL, so the public signal is a lis pendens (notice of pendency) filed in court, not a recorded notice. New York returns about 28,600 active, the order of magnitude of true litigation inventory, not a six-figure proxy dump.

The longest window

From the filed case through the mandatory settlement conference to the sale often runs about 15 months, among the longest in the country. That is far more time than any non-judicial state to reach the owner and structure a deal, while they still hold title.

Enriched, ready to dial

Owner identity, skip-traced phones and emails, estimated equity, mortgage balance and lender. 90+ columns, so you score a New York deal before you call.

What we do not ship

The court-document detail (index number, exact lis pendens date, scheduled auction date) is not in the file. You get the flag, the owner, the equity picture, and the contact path, pulled fresh. Filings are public record, so we do not promise exclusivity.

Pay-as-you-go, not a forced subscription

Every other New York pre-foreclosure tool makes you subscribe first

The tools usually recommended for New York pre-foreclosure data are $50-100-a-month subscriptions, billed whether or not you pull a single list. We charge by the row, with an optional plan for high-volume teams.

ToolPricing modelPay-as-you-go
PropStream~$99 / month

Skip Trace Depot$0.22 / row · plan optional

Pull 50 Kings leads for a test campaign and pay eleven dollars. Pull 5,000 across New York next month and pay for 5,000. Never pay for a month you didn't use.
