NYC foreclosure radar: July 6

This week’s NYC foreclosure radar ranks June 29-July 6 new and materially changed auction leads by value signal, urgency, verification quality, and risk gaps. The top action leads are 2261 Loretta Rd, 57 Harbour Ct, 161 Fulton St, and 120-45 164th St, with missing title/lien/occupancy fields called out where unsupported.

Coverage window: June 29, 2026 at 9:54 AM to July 6, 2026 at 9:00 AM local display time. This week's package has usable new or materially changed signals, but it does not fully verify title, lien priority, judgment amounts, tax arrears, or post-auction outcomes because ACRIS/eCourts details were not available in the supplied research.
The top ranked lead is not the flashiest Manhattan address. It is 2261 Loretta Rd in Far Rockaway, where the opening bid fell from $225,000 to $95,000, followed by Staten Island and Queens listings where the bid, timing, or occupancy field gives buyers a concrete next step. 1 2
The filter below ranks for actionability: discount/value signal first, then urgency, verification quality, and risk transparency. OB means opening bid. EMV means an estimated market value or market-value proxy from the cited source. When EMV, occupancy, title, or lien priority is missing, the table says so directly.

Ranked action shortlist

RankPropertyWhy it ranks hereTimingRisk fields to verify
12261 Loretta Rd, Far Rockaway, QueensThe OB fell from $225,000 to $95,000, a 57.8% drop, and the listing is marked Bank Owned / First Look. 1 2Online auction window shown as July 5-7, 2026. 1EMV, occupancy, title encumbrances, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available in the supplied package.
257 Harbour Ct, Staten IslandThe OB dropped from $300,000 to $250,000, and Redfin-based comparable value context puts EMV around $640,000-$657,856; the nominal OB-to-EMV discount is roughly 61%. 3 4Auction.com snippets place the auction around July 1-3, so buyers should verify whether the event is still open before spending on diligence. 3Occupancy, title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available.
3161 Fulton St, Staten IslandServiceLink lists this as a newly foreclosed CWT online auction with a $217,000 starting bid and a $307,000 current bid from a bidder; the reserve was not met. 5Online auction runs July 5-7, 2026. 5Occupancy is listed as occupied, which makes possession a gating risk; EMV, title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available. 5
4120-45 164th St, Jamaica, QueensThis is a new Bank Owned Auction.com listing with a $200,000 OB, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 5,687 views. 6Auction window shown as July 7-9, 2026. 6EMV is unknown, so this is a price-screen lead rather than a confirmed discount; occupancy, title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available.
52529 97th St, East Elmhurst, QueensThe OB rose from $250,000 to $350,000 as the listing moved into active auction status, while the same address still has MLS #932110 at $764,900 and a Zillow Zestimate of $1.37 million. 7 8 9Auction.com window shown as July 6-8, 2026. 7The dual MLS/auction signal needs verification before bidding; occupancy, title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available.
651 N Burgher Ave, Staten IslandServiceLink lists a vacant single-family TPS foreclosure with 968 sq ft, built in 1905, on a 5,500 sq ft lot; nearby sales context is $400,000-$710,000 with a mid-point around $550,000. 10Live auction is July 9, 2026 at Richmond County Supreme Court, 18 Richmond Terrace Room 112. 10Vacant occupancy lowers one major possession risk, but no public OB is listed; title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available. 10
7541 W 159th St, ManhattanThis is a new Manhattan Auction.com listing with a $900,000 OB, $100,000 bid increment, and reserve not met status. 11Auction window shown as July 2-16, 2026. 11EMV is unknown, so the $900,000 OB cannot be scored as a discount; occupancy, title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available.
81941 E 29th St, BrooklynServiceLink lists this as a Bank Owned TRD multi-family property with a $455,000 starting bid, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2,380 sq ft, a 5% buyer's premium, and nearby sales context of $500,000-$1.018 million. 12Online auction runs July 6-9, 2026. 12Occupancy is listed as occupied, and the 5% buyer's premium adds $22,750 at the starting bid; title, lien priority, tax arrears, and judgment amount were not available. 12
Two other Auction.com changes stay on the watchlist rather than the top eight. 172c Edgewater Park in the Bronx now shows a $275,000 OB after being TBD last week, but the direct page was not found in the search index and EMV is unknown. 13 88 Greenwich St #1122 in Manhattan has a $749,500 OB and same-building EMV range of $591,200-$886,000, which means the bid may be above the low-end comp and below the high-end comp rather than a clear discount. 14 15
ServiceLink is useful this week because it gives occupancy and auction-mechanics fields that Auction.com snippets often do not. It is still incomplete for valuation: the supplied package has EMV estimates only for 1414 Putnam Ave among the ServiceLink detail set.
PropertyCurrent signalBuyer read
1414 Putnam Ave, BrooklynFormer June 30 TPS foreclosure relisted as newly foreclosed CWT; duplex, 6 bed, 4 bath, 2,362 sq ft; current bid $708,000; reserve not met; all recent listed bids were seller-placed. 16Occupied status and seller-placed bidding make this a verification-first case despite Zillow/Realtor value context of about $1.15 million-$1.25 million. 16 17
266 Jamaica Ave, BrooklynNewly foreclosed CWT duplex; 4 bed, 2 bath, 1,458 sq ft; starting bid $323,000; current bid $423,000; all current listed bids were seller-placed. 18Occupied status, reserve-not-met dynamics, and Quitclaim Deed language make title and possession review non-optional. 18
683 Sheffield Ave, BrooklynTPS foreclosure, 2,880 sq ft, vacant, with estimated OB of $1,031,047.44. 19Vacant status is useful, but the high estimated OB and missing EMV keep it out of the discount shortlist. 19
231 68th St #103, BrooklynTPS condo, 902 sq ft, live auction July 9; the index shows a very low estimated OB around $38,000. 19The low OB is a flag to verify lien structure, unit type, and arrears before treating it as a bargain. Occupancy is not shown in the supplied index data. 19
10447 44th Ave, Flushing, QueensTPS duplex, 1,600 sq ft, occupied, live auction July 10. 19This is the only Queens TPS item in the current ServiceLink batch, but OB and EMV were not available in the supplied data. 19
1517 E 94 St and 1439 E 70th St, BrooklynBoth are July 16 TPS duplex auctions; 1517 E 94 St is 1,504 sq ft and occupied, while 1439 E 70th St is 2,220 sq ft and occupied. 19Both need OB, EMV, title, lien priority, and possession checks before ranking. 19

Attorney-calendar additions

Roach & Lin's July page was materially rebuilt on July 2: seven previously tracked NYC properties disappeared, eight NYC properties were added, and a new August page added nine more NYC properties. 20 21 These are calendar leads, not clean discount leads, because opening bids and full title packages are generally missing from the supplied attorney pages.
DatePropertyWhy it matters
July 9370 Ocean Parkway #3C, BrooklynNew Roach & Lin July entry; StreetEasy listing context is $585,000 for a 2-bed, 1-bath, 1,100 sq ft Kensington co-op. 20 22

July 23171 Wellington Ct #1L, Staten IslandNew July entry; the case is Bank of New York Mellon as trustee v. Gerald Brumskine et al., Index #135203/2016, with Zillow estimate $485,800. 20 24

August 21148-16 Rockaway Beach Blvd, QueensNew August entry; the case is Bank of New York Mellon as trustee v. Howard Kindler et al., Index #706830/2023, with Zillow Zestimate $1,008,400 and Realtor estimate $1,247,983. 21 29
Davidson Fink's page still lists 145-11 106th Ave after its June 26 Queens auction, but the supplied page did not show a sale price, cancellation, postponement, or other post-auction result as of July 6. 30 That makes it an outcome-watch item, not a current bid lead.

Removed, cancelled, or downgraded

Several changes are negative signals for buyers who were carrying leads from prior weeks.
  • 1191 E 96th St, Brooklyn no longer appears in Auction.com search results after showing a $600,000 current bid last week; Zillow still showed an auction tag but no price. 31 32
  • 1056 Beach 22nd St, Queens and 6106 60th Dr, Staten Island were both confirmed absent from Auction.com search results, so they should leave the active watchlist unless they reappear. 33 34
  • 349 E 49th St #2K, Manhattan is a new Roach & Lin July entry, but the same page marks the July 7 co-op auction as cancelled; StreetEasy context shows a $465,000 listing for a 1-bed, 1-bath, 540 sq ft Beekman Court co-op. 20 35
  • ServiceLink's June 30 batch mostly disappeared after auction: seven of eight tracked properties returned empty ServiceLink platform searches, but the supplied research could not confirm whether they sold, were withdrawn, or were cancelled. 36
  • 260 Linden Blvd #2F, Brooklyn ended July 1 with a $315,090 closing bid, but reserve status and sale outcome remain unknown in the supplied data. 36

Due-diligence floor

Every ranked lead still needs the same pre-bid checks: active sale confirmation, title search, lien priority, tax and HOA/condo arrears, judgment amount, occupancy, and whether the sale path is Bank Owned, Foreclosure Sale, TPS, TRD, or CWT. The supplied sources are strong enough to rank attention, but they are not a substitute for a title report or direct auction-platform confirmation.
The cleanest next steps are narrow. Verify 2261 Loretta Rd and 57 Harbour Ct first for price movement, check 161 Fulton St and 51 N Burgher Ave for Staten Island exposure with explicit occupancy fields, and use the Roach & Lin calendar as a monitoring queue until opening bids or judgment packages are available.
