Frequently Asked Questions
What is the foreclosure timeline in New York?
In New York, the foreclosure process typically takes 12 to 18 months from the first missed payment to the sale. After the lender files a summons and complaint, you have 20 to 30 days to respond. The court then schedules a settlement conference, and if no agreement is reached, the case moves to a judgment of foreclosure and sale.
Can I stop a foreclosure in Floral Park after a lis pendens is filed?
Yes, you can still stop a foreclosure after a lis pendens is filed. Options include filing an answer to the complaint, requesting a mandatory settlement conference under RPAPL Section 1302, or seeking a loan modification. An attorney can also file motions to dismiss or raise defenses such as improper service or lack of standing.
What are common defenses to foreclosure in New York?
Common defenses include the lender failing to provide proper notice under RPAPL Section 1304, lack of standing because the plaintiff does not own the note and mortgage, or violations of the statute of limitations. New York also requires lenders to send a 90-day pre-foreclosure notice before starting a lawsuit.
