NYC Foreclosure Auction Radar — May 26, 2026

Coverage window: May 25, 2026 18:12 UTC → May 26, 2026 19:00 UTC (~25 hours). Infrastructure fully recovered this cycle. Auction.com, ServiceLink, and DistressedRealEstate.net (DistressedRealEstate.net — a distressed-property listing aggregator) were all accessible via search. Total unique active NYC foreclosure auction properties tracked: approximately 47 across all platforms.

OB = opening bid (Auction.com term); SB = starting bid (ServiceLink term, equivalent to OB); CB = current bid; EMV = estimated market value; CWCOT = Claims Without Conveyance of Title (the HUD/FHA program under which ServiceLink lists many properties). DRE = DistressedRealEstate.net.

NYC tax lien sales remain paused through approximately October 2026. All active listings in this report are mortgage or HOA foreclosures.

Four properties on ServiceLink are scheduled to close today, May 26. All are CWCOT listings with no buyer's premium.

1568 Rockaway Pkwy — This property entered yesterday's radar as the cycle's headline candidate at a $54,000 Auction.com starting bid (~92% implied discount to a $650K EMV). It has since migrated to ServiceLink with the starting bid revised to $230,000 and a current bid of $430,000. 1 The 92% headline is no longer applicable; at the $430K current bid, the implied discount against a $600–$700K composite EMV is roughly 35–45%. The property is occupied. Multiple AVM sources (Realtor.com $662K, Movoto $847K, Homes.com $551K–$847K) show a wide spread, suggesting condition risk. 56 Under CWCOT rules, the deed conveys without title insurance from the lender — buyers must order their own title search before bidding. Auction closes today.

1280 E 100th St — ServiceLink's most active listing this cycle, flagged as "Hot property." The starting bid of $108,000 drew aggressive competition; the current bid has reached $510,000 against a Homes.com estimate of $905K–$1.11M and a Realtor.com estimate of $992,600. 2 The property is a newly foreclosed town house listed as occupied. No buyer's premium applies. Auction closes today.

266 Jamaica Ave — A newly foreclosed duplex in East New York, migrated from Auction.com (where it carried a $342K starting bid after a 38% cut from $549K). 3 The current bid is unconfirmed this cycle. A prior Auction.com auction for this address reportedly reached a $515K CB without conveying title; the reset SB of $342K is well below that prior-cycle high. Occupied.

1414 Putnam Ave — A six-bedroom Bushwick duplex. The SB is $527,000; Trulia's AVM range is $1.315M–$1.58M, implying a roughly 60–65% discount if the property closes at the starting bid. 4 Current bid not confirmed. Occupied. Prior auction cycle (ending May 19) reached $598K CB.

Eight properties with confirmed opening bids entered the active pipeline this cycle. The table below ranks them by implied discount; per-entry notes follow.

820 Edison Ave, Bronx — This is the property's fourth consecutive relist. It has now moved from ServiceLink to Auction.com Bank Owned. The $325,000 OB sits against a Cotality EMV of $847,463, a Zillow Zestimate of $872,500, and a Redfin-confirmed sale of $750,000 in June 2022. 15 Three failed cycles suggest either title complications, structural issues, or market resistance at this price — all warrant investigation before treating the 62% implied discount as realizable.

330 E 91st St, Brooklyn — Bank Owned, five-bedroom multi-family in East Flatbush. The MLS carry price is $990,000; Homes.com estimates $1,093,333. The $465,000 OB implies a ~53% discount. 9 Built in 1935; no explicit condition flags from the listing. Auction opens May 27.

973 Schenectady Ave, Brooklyn — Also East Flatbush, also a six-bedroom multi-family at 2,748 sqft. Zillow lists an identical address at $925,000; the $462,500 OB is exactly 50% of that figure. 10 Pairs with 330 E 91st St as a same-day same-neighborhood comparison opportunity.

1444 Edwards Ave, Bronx — Foreclosure sale (not bank-owned), uploaded May 24. Four-bed, two-bath multi-family at 1,969 sqft. Zillow Zestimate is $789,600; Realtor.com puts it at $831,379; the composite EMV range is $780K–$830K. 16 At a $325,000 OB, the implied discount is approximately 60%. Auction opens May 29.

22 Nova Ct, Brooklyn — Bank Owned, 2-bedroom, 2-bath at 1,600 sqft in Marine Park. Zillow lists $500,000; the $225,000 OB implies roughly 55% below that figure. 8 Auction opens May 28.

445 W 240th St, Bronx (Riverdale) — A $250,000 OB in Riverdale — one of the Bronx's most expensive neighborhoods — has a Reserve Not Met flag. 14 The reserve almost certainly sits above the OB; treat this as a floor, not an acquirable price.

209 E 2nd St #6, Manhattan (East Village) — Bank Owned condo, 2bd/2ba at 1,238 sqft. The MLS list price is $1,850,000; Movoto estimates $1.8M–$1.96M; comparable Unit 7 in the same building is listed at $2.1M. 17 No opening bid was confirmed this cycle. Manhattan East Village condos at Auction.com typically receive minimal discount to market; confirm OB before treating this as a deep-discount candidate.

57 Harbour Ct, Staten Island (Great Kills) — Bank Owned, 2bd/2ba condo at 1,532 sqft, listed May 23. Zillow Zestimate is $545,900; Realtor.com estimates $681,100; Homes.com range $652K–$790K. 18 Auction opens June 8 — outside this window but an unusual Staten Island foreclosure condo worth tracking. No OB confirmed yet.

The three DistressedRealEstate.net (DistressedRealEstate.net — a distressed-property aggregator sourcing data from court filings) listings that appeared on yesterday's radar without pricing data now have confirmed figures. All three were listed May 22 and marked "Just listed" on the DRE homepage.

3707 20th Rd, Astoria, Queens — 4bd/3ba multi-family, 1,600 sqft on a 2,500 sqft lot. Asking price $1,100,000, listed at 22–27% below market depending on which DRE page is referenced (implied EMV $1.41M–$1.51M). 19 Northwest Queens carries some of the higher outer-borough residential values; four-bedroom homes in Astoria's 11105 zip have transacted between $900K and $1.4M recently. Confirm auction date and occupancy status directly on the DRE listing page.

7028 73rd St, Glendale, Queens — 3bd/2ba, asking price $875,129, 22% below DRE's implied EMV of ~$1.12M. 19 Glendale sits between Ridgewood and Forest Hills; recent 11385-zip comparables have ranged from $600K to $850K. Compact footprint but stable-demand neighborhood.

2536 Davidson Ave, Bronx — Single-family town house at 3,614 sqft. Asking price $1,299,000, listed at 19–24% below market (implied EMV $1.60M–$1.71M). 19 Day-one listing. Near University Heights/Van Cortlandt — one of the larger distressed footprints currently visible across all five boroughs.

Five prior-cycle properties have recorded meaningful bid activity or status changes since May 25.

167 E 61st St Apt 28E, Manhattan (Upper East Side) — The current bid has climbed to $882,500, up from the $782,500 OB recorded on May 24. 20 This is a 2bd/2.5ba condo (1,342 sqft) in Trump Plaza, a 39-story Upper East Side building completed in 1983. Zillow estimates $1,581,800; Realtor.com puts it at $1,442,600; Trulia at $1,614,200. 21 At the current bid, the implied discount is approximately 39–43% below the AVM range — notable for Manhattan. Auction ends May 27. Verify whether the unit requires co-op board approval; a board rejection after winning would forfeit the deposit.

2809 Ely Ave Unit 3, Bronx — The current bid has escalated to $364,500, up from a $175,000 OB when this condo entered the pipeline. 22 The condo is 3bd/2ba at 1,125 sqft; Redfin estimates $455,223 and Realtor.com $487,000. At $364.5K, the margin to EMV is roughly 20–25% — still positive but the bidding has eaten significantly into the initial implied discount. Auction ends May 27.

625 Lenox Rd, Brooklyn (East Flatbush) — The current bid has reached $450,000, and the auction end date has been pulled forward from May 31 to May 28. 23 This is a 2bd/1ba ranch at 1,505 sqft; the OB was $275,000 when the property relisted. The CB has now risen 64% above that starting point. Watch for further escalation on May 28.

1183 Grenada Pl, Bronx — Multiple SERP sources show a current bid in the $305K–$455K range for this 3bd/1.5ba SFH (OB $225,000). 24 The range spread is significant and likely reflects caching across multiple listing IDs for the same property — verify the live bid on Auction.com before the May 28 close. Treat the lower end ($305K) as the more conservative current estimate.

59 Pembrook Loop, Staten Island — OB has been cut from $375,000 to $275,000, a $100,000 reduction. 25 This is a 2bd/2.5ba colonial SFH at 1,672 sqft; Zillow carries a $600,000 list price, and the NYC Property Portal recorded a November 2024 transfer at $513,000. At the new $275K OB, the implied discount is roughly 54% against list and 46% against the most recent recorded transfer. Bank Owned; auction ends May 28.

1334 Pacific St, Brooklyn (Crown Heights/Bed-Stuy) — Previously tracked with a $1,000,000 current bid, the property has been relisted at a $800,000 OB as Bank Owned, with a First Look Period through May 27. 26 The 6bd/3ba multi-family at 3,200 sqft carries a Zillow Zestimate of $1,652,400; at $800K OB, the implied discount is approximately 52%. Auction expected to open May 28.

110-34 166th St, Jamaica, Queens — Migrated from Auction.com to ServiceLink, with a starting bid of $292,000 (one Serper snapshot showed $315K, likely a stale cache). 27 This is a 3bd/1.5ba SFH at 1,719 sqft, newly foreclosed, occupied. Queens County Supreme Court entered a foreclosure judgment on February 27, 2026. Treat the $292K figure as confirmed; verify current bid directly on ServiceLink.

2012 Benedict Ave, Bronx — Still active on Auction.com. The listing carries an explicit platform disclosure: "Property may have code violations and may need to be demolished. Demolition or repair of structure(s) will be at the Buyers expense." 28 This is a 5bd/3ba multi-family at 2,604 sqft. Until a structural inspection is completed, treat this as a land-value assessment only.

1225 E 85th St, Brooklyn — Status remains unresolved. Prior cycle data marked this property as sold on May 17, but Auction.com listing #1924862 remains active and Zillow shows "pending." 29 A ServiceLink record confirms 6bd/3ba/2,364 sqft with a $400,000 SB. Do not bid without confirming current status on both platforms.

CWCOT occupancy note — All four properties closing today on ServiceLink are marked "occupied." Under CWCOT rules, buyers receive a deed but must arrange possession through court proceedings if the occupant does not vacate. Factor eviction timeline and carrying costs into any bid calculation.

Standard verification (every property) — Before placing any bid, confirm on the live listing page: current bid, deposit amount, deed type, buyer's premium, and auction end time. For title and lien history, search ACRIS (acris.nyc.gov) by address for all recorded liens, deeds, and encumbrances at no cost. NYSCEF (iapps.courts.state.ny.us) provides the full foreclosure case file — plaintiff, judgment amount, and filing history — also free by address.
