Today's closing auctions — key figures
Auction.com properties ending May 27, 2026
NYC Foreclosure Auction Radar — May 27, 2026
Three Auction.com auctions close today: 820 Edison Ave Bronx (4th relist, CB $320K, ~63% implied discount — but four consecutive failures are a serious red flag), 831 Jennings St Bronx (Bank Owned, NYC-assessed $508K, MLS $400K), and 451 E 49th St Brooklyn (MLS $770K). 167 E 61st St Manhattan co-op closes today at $882.5K CB (~45% below EMV). Two new watch entries: 57 Harbour Ct Staten Island (Bank Owned condo, MLS $640K, OB TBD) and 209 E 2nd St Manhattan East Village (MLS $1.85M, OB TBD, First Look). Coverage ~45% due to second consecutive day of Google/Serper API outage.
Coverage window: May 26, 2026 14:24 UTC → May 27, 2026 14:00 UTC (~24 hours). Infrastructure note: Google and Serper search APIs remained down for a second consecutive day. Bing was the sole functioning search engine but routed roughly 40% of queries to irrelevant results. All ServiceLink property pages returned JS-only content and could not be scraped. Estimated coverage this cycle: ~45%. All closing outcomes from May 26's ServiceLink auctions are unconfirmed.
Glossary: OB = opening bid (Auction.com); CB = current bid; EMV = estimated market value (composite of available AVM sources); CWCOT = Claims Without Conveyance of Title (the HUD/FHA program under which ServiceLink lists most properties). NYC tax lien sales remain paused through approximately October 2026 — all active listings below are mortgage or HOA foreclosures.
Auctions closing today — May 27
Three Auction.com properties reach their window end today. All results will be unconfirmed until infrastructure recovers.
| Address | Borough | Type | Current bid | EMV reference | Implied discount | Platform |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 820 Edison Ave | Bronx (Throgs Neck) | SFH 3bd/2ba 1,387 sqft | $320,000 ⚠️ | ~$857K (Zillow AVM) | ~62.7% | Auction.com 1 |

820 Edison Ave, Bronx — Today marks the property's fourth consecutive auction cycle. It has cycled through three prior relists (one zero-bid close, then a price cut from $450K to $325K OB, then a $450K registered CB before re-listing), and the current bid has now ticked down from the $325K OB to $320,000, a pattern uncommon on Auction.com and suggestive of a retracted or cancelled bid. 1 The 1920-built SFH sits on a 3,000 sqft lot with a four-car garage and terrace in Throgs Neck. Zillow's AVM is ~$857K, implying ~62.7% below market at current bid — but four consecutive failures are a durable red flag. Pull the ACRIS title chain before bidding; repeated auction failure commonly indicates a lien priority dispute, a title defect, or occupancy complexity the opening bid does not price in.
831 Jennings St, Bronx — A 1901-built five-bedroom Bank Owned home in Crotona Park East. NYC Department of Finance assessed value is $508,000; it is simultaneously listed on MLS at $400,000 (NY State MLS #11441344, listed March 3, 2026). 2 The Auction.com listing ID is confirmed as #1702986 (a prior record cited #2076179 in error). At a $400K MLS ask, the discount to the NYC-assessed figure is ~21%. Crotona Park East has seen significant investment from smaller landlords; the five-bedroom footprint suits a rental-income buyer. Listing ID correction is worth noting if you've been tracking this address under the old number.
451 E 49th St, Brooklyn — A 1,404 sqft Colonial-style single-family home in East Flatbush. MLS listing at $770,000 (Brooklyn Board of Realtors #965074, listed February 26, 2026). 3 Confirmed Auction.com listing ID: #2062616 (a prior cycle record cited #2075219 in error). Current bid not confirmed this cycle — monitor the live listing before auction close. At the MLS ask as an EMV proxy, any OB below $500K would represent a meaningful discount, but bid confirmation is essential.
Watch-list — active bids and status changes
167 E 61st St Apt 28E, Manhattan (Upper East Side) — Auction ends today. Current bid stands at $882,500, unchanged from the May 26 cycle. 4 This 2bd/2.5ba co-op (or condo) sits in a full-service building near Bloomingdale's on the Upper East Side. EMV estimates from prior research range $1.44M–$1.61M, implying a ~45–46% discount at current bid — substantial for Manhattan. Co-op board approval risk applies if the unit is a co-op rather than a condo; a board rejection after winning voids the contract and forfeits the deposit. Confirm the unit type on ACRIS and verify whether the building bylaws require board approval before placing a bid.
625 Lenox Rd, Brooklyn (East Flatbush) — Auction opens May 31. OB confirmed at $275,000 vs. MLS list of $620,000, a ~55.6% implied discount. 5 This 2bd/1ba 1940s ranch at 1,505 sqft first appeared in the May 19 radar at the same OB; it was relisted again for May 31. Prior cycles recorded bids escalating well above OB (CB reached $450K during the May 26 window). Budget for competitive bidding and check lien history — an MLS listing alongside the Auction.com position can indicate a disputed title process.
New and ongoing listings — ranked by discount
Properties with confirmed data this cycle, sorted by implied discount to available market references.
| Address | Borough | Type | OB / ask | EMV / market ref. | Implied discount | Auction window |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 57 Harbour Ct | Staten Island (Great Kills) | Condo 2bd/2.5ba 1,532 sqft | OB: TBD | MLS $640,000 (10+ sources) | TBD (OB not set) | Auction.com #2078597 6 |
| 209 E 2nd St #6 | Manhattan (East Village) | Condo 2bd/2ba 1,238 sqft | OB: TBD (First Look) | MLS $1,850,000 (dual-source confirmed) | TBD (OB not set) | Auction.com #2062758 7 |
| 1444 Edwards Ave | Bronx (Schuyerville) | Multi-family 5bd+ 1,969 sqft | OB active | EMV: $493K–$778K (wide range) | ~37–55% at mid-OB | Auction.com #2039469 8 |
| 935 Rogers Pl | Bronx (Foxhurst) | SFH/two-family 1,312 sqft | OB active | ~$495K (Homes.com) | TBD at current OB | Auction.com #2040394 9 |
| 16 W 14th Rd | Queens (Far Rockaway) | SFH 3bd/1ba 747 sqft | OB active | EMV TBD | TBD | Auction.com #2063539 10 |
57 Harbour Ct, Staten Island — The most significant new entry this cycle. A Bank Owned condo confirmed on 10+ independent MLS platforms (Douglas Elliman, Coldwell Banker, Zillow, Redfin, Century 21, Xome, and others) at $640,000 as of May 26. 6 The 1,532 sqft unit has one garage space in Great Kills, a stable south-shore neighborhood. Opening bid on Auction.com (#2078597) has not yet been set — this is a First Look period. If the OB follows the pattern of other Bank Owned Staten Island condos (~40–60% of EMV), expect a floor in the $250K–$380K range. The last recorded sale for this address was $265,600 in September 2000, 11 suggesting significant equity at the current MLS price. Confirm OB announcement before this window closes.
209 E 2nd St #6, Manhattan (East Village) — A 2bd/2ba condo at 1,238 sqft in Alphabet City, confirmed by two independent sources (Realty.com and Houlihan Lawrence, MLS #939277) at an asking price of $1,850,000. 7 The penthouse unit directly above (#7) is listed at $2.1M (1,677 sqft), providing an upper-bound comparable. 12 Opening bid has not been announced; the listing is in its First Look period on Auction.com (#2062758). East Village condos at auction rarely reach deep discounts, but the MLS has been active for ~6 months without closing — worth watching for an OB announcement.
1444 Edwards Ave, Bronx — A 1930-built multi-family at 1,969 sqft in Schuyerville. The EMV picture is noisy: DRE estimates $725,700, Homes.com estimates $778,485, and RealtyTrac projects an expected value of just $493,302 — a $285K spread across three sources. 813 The last recorded market sale was $495,100 in November 2015. Until the EMV range tightens, treat the mid-range (~$635K) as a working reference and apply a wide uncertainty buffer to any bid calculation.
935 Rogers Pl, Bronx — A 1920-built SFH listed by Trulia as a foreclosure and described by Redfin as a two-family home in Foxhurst. Homes.com estimates EMV at $494,906. 9 A recorded transaction at $50,000 in August 2024 is almost certainly a trust transfer or intra-family conveyance, not a market sale. Current Auction.com OB not confirmed this cycle due to Bing routing failures — query the live listing (#2040394) directly.
16 W 14th Rd, Far Rockaway, Queens — A 1920-built SFH at 747 sqft, confirmed active on Auction.com (#2063539). 10 This property migrated from ServiceLink to Auction.com (per the May 26 cycle). EMV for this address has not been confirmed this cycle; the May 22 radar noted a ~$499K implied value against a $175K OB (~65% discount). Compact footprint in a coastal flood-risk neighborhood — check FEMA flood zone designation before bidding.

Note: 57 Harbour Ct and 209 E 2nd St show 0% — opening bids not yet set (First Look period). 1444 Edwards Ave uses EMV mid-range (~$635K); 935 Rogers Pl uses Homes.com estimate ($495K); 16 W 14th Rd uses prior-cycle reference (~$499K). Treat all figures as approximate pending OB confirmation.
May 26 ServiceLink closing outcomes — all unconfirmed
Five properties were scheduled to close on ServiceLink on May 26. None of the outcomes could be confirmed this cycle: ServiceLink property pages are not indexed by Bing and were inaccessible due to JavaScript rendering. Google and Serper remained down. ServiceLink typically posts records with a 3–5 day lag; the May 28–29 cycle should surface results if infrastructure recovers.

Flagged — not foreclosure auctions
1916 83rd St, Brooklyn (Bensonhurst) — Appeared as "NEW" on DistressedRealEstate.net's homepage on May 26, listed at $1,349,999 with a claim of "22% less than market." Cross-referencing confirms this is a standard MLS listing simultaneously offered by Douglas Elliman, Compass, Coldwell Banker, and CENTURY 21 (MLS #501602). 15 It is not a foreclosure, it is not a court-ordered auction, and it has no distressed-sale mechanism. DRE aggregates non-foreclosure MLS listings alongside its court-filing data — verify any DRE entry's legal status independently before treating the platform's "below market" label as an auction opportunity.
2536 Davidson Ave, Bronx — Previously on DRE's page 1 (asking $1,299,000, 19% below DRE's stated market value). Removed from DRE page 1 as of this cycle; destination unknown. The property may have sold, been delisted, or moved to a deeper DRE page currently inaccessible. No auction outcome data found.
Risk flags and verification checklist
For every property before bidding:
- Confirm current bid, deposit required, deed type, buyer's premium, and auction end time on the live listing page — this report reflects data as of approximately 14:00 EDT May 27 and snapshots can change within hours.
- ACRIS (acris.nyc.gov) — search by address for all recorded deeds, mortgages, and liens. Free. This is the definitive lien priority source for NYC.
- NYSCEF (iapps.courts.state.ny.us) — search by address for the foreclosure case file: plaintiff, judgment amount, and whether a judgment of foreclosure and sale has been entered.
- FEMA Flood Map (msc.fema.gov) — required for any coastal or low-lying property (Far Rockaway, Staten Island shoreline).
820 Edison Ave specifically — Four failed auction cycles without a recorded sale is abnormal. Before bidding, run ACRIS to identify whether a superior lien (IRS, judgment creditor, or municipal lien) survives a foreclosure sale. A surviving superior lien becomes the buyer's obligation.
Co-op vs. condo (167 E 61st St) — Confirm the unit's legal structure before bidding. Co-op shares cannot be conveyed by foreclosure deed without board approval in most cases. A board rejection after winning the auction typically voids the transaction and forfeits the deposit.
CWCOT properties — All ServiceLink listings operate under the CWCOT program. Buyers receive a deed but no lender-issued title insurance. Order a title search independently before any ServiceLink bid.
Data quality note
This cycle's ~45% coverage means 8 monitored properties had no data retrieved, and ServiceLink's entire May 26 closing batch remains unresolved. Properties known to be unverified this cycle include: 330 E 91st St Brooklyn (#2078618), 440 Blake Ave Brooklyn (#2055792), 1225 E 85th St Brooklyn (#1924862), 195 E 40th St Brooklyn, 59 Pembrook Loop Staten Island, 255-31 149th Rd Queens, and 1334 Pacific St Brooklyn (#2075180). Check those listings directly on Auction.com or ServiceLink for current status.
