Foreclosures of the Week

How do I get in on this foreclosure action(as a buyer)?

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:16 AM

bottom feeders? what an asinine, short-sighted comment that reeks of hubris.

I walk pass 416 every morning while walking my dog. That’s a decent block. This explains the garbage in the front yard. Really sad…

Eventually I might lose my house to foreclosure. Sucks to be in that situation.

Guess what dumbasses? When a house in foreclosure goes back to the bank, the bank sells the house for less than the original mortgage. Thats a new comp assholes! Your house just loss some value. Also if there are many foreclosure in your hood, it drags all of the comps down. in the zipcodes of 11238, 11205 and 11216 are fucking TOAST.

Good point, the What. Surrounding property values are dragged down by lower comps.
Please explain, though... what is this war you keep referring to?

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:44 AM

I can't see the info on the Clinton Hill Coop foreclosure - how did you find that and does anyone know how long it takes a coop board to move for foreclosure? Can you tell if this is occurring because of unpaid maintenance or due to mortgage? Since it is so much $$$, I presume it's the mortgage company moving however - it seems likely to me that - if you're 100k behind in the mortgage, your maintenance is probably behind too.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:44 AM

when you buy a forclosure, you have to pay for all the liens aganist the property- and you don't know about those things at auction. also, i've been told that in nyc banks are moving things at market value.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:46 AM

11:44 The cooperative has the first claim on the apartment so the coop could foreclose for unpaid maintenance. However, if the bank loan is not being paid, the bank pays the maintenance and forecloses. If you buy a coop at foreclosure you must still be approved by the coop Board and meet any requirements (no investors, etc).

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:49 AM

I heard Michelle Williams is buying the place on Clinton Ave.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:50 AM

"i've been told that in nyc banks are moving things at market value"

They would like to have you believe such. But, think a little about what's market. If it at least close to the mortgage debt, why wouldn't the homeowner just sell for market. Simple fact that when foreclosure sales increase market prices will be going down, down, down...

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:52 AM

Does anyone understand the title and mortgage history on the Pacific Street property? There's a May 2002 deed transfer by the previous owner for $675,000 (followed by a mortgage dated May 2003 and recorded July 2003 for $607K and further assigned to a new lender in 2006), but then a July 2003 deed transfer by the previous owner to a completely different corporate entity for no value.

So -- is there a clear title to be had by purchasing at foreclosure, and how did the mortgage get to be over $800 K if the loan was only for $607K?

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 11:59 AM

"lol The What. Why so angry?"

I have witnessed the greatest asset bubble in history. People wanted to get a house because their (insert asshole here) got one.

We will pay for our folly for years to come. Nobody give a shit or are too stupid to care.

Inflation is out of control! Asset prices are out of control! Food, gas and other things we buy are out of control!

BTW Nobody is paying their Mortgages now. They are going to walk away, leaving ghost blocks and towns in they wake.

Dream on assholes, it's only a matter of time.

Anyone know the state of it inside?

Anyone got a link to auction procedure (bank check amount, etc)?

If they marketed these things more effectively the bank could get a better return. As it is, it seems they spring into the public eye from nowhere, with no inspections, nothing but a wing and a prayer.

No the Meds are fine, Asshole. While your here, Read this.

Remember Long-Term Capital? Thats the hedge fund that blew 3.2 Billion dollars. Greensperm and Co had to bail out these suckers. Now kiddies we have 100's of billions of dollars to worry about!

Nov. 6 (Bloomberg) — Citigroup Inc. named Richard Stuckey to manage most of its $43 billion of subprime mortgage assets, choosing the same executive who helped unwind Long-Term Capital Management LP’s bad bets nine years ago…

Rescuing the bank’s subprime holdings may be a harder challenge than Long-Term Capital, said Lawrence White, professor of economics at New York University’s Stern School of Business. New York-based Citigroup owns subprime mortgage securities that rarely trade and are hard to value. The Long-Term Capital hedge fund was holding derivatives tied to interest-rate and equities that readily trade.

“The opaqueness as well as the stinkiness are greater,'’ White said.
Citigroup said yesterday in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that the amount of assets it held that were hard to value rose 42 percent in the third quarter. The company’s Level 3 assets climbed to $135 billion at the end of September from $95 billion at the end of June, according to SEC filings.

"bottom feeders"
How totally disrepectful and ignorant.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 12:28 PM

There's a long tragic history to 416 Pacific. (I live across the street.) But the bottom line is: the house is the scourge of the block. The D of Environ Protection turned off gas, water, everything this summer after declaring it a toxic site. (House is apparently filled with rodents, dead and alive.) I have actually seen rats running across window sills. Owner is mentally ill and has Collier's Disease (the hoarding thing). A few years ago, she got a lawyer to overturn some earlier mortgage she'd taken out, claiming it was a predatory lender. Which explains why she's been there for as long as she has, having never paid a bill. (She inherited the house from her mother.) I can't say I will be sorry to see her go, if she ever does. Though I have my doubts. (So far, she has outwitted everyone, including a previous foreclosure attempt.) The house reeks so badly I sometimes cross the street rather than walk in front. Good luck to prospective buyers. The house is huge, on a huge lot, and smack in middle of a great block, etc. But it will obviously require massive amounts of work. I understand there's mold everywhere.

@iluvclintonhill:

Can't imagine what it feels like to know you are losing your home? Why, I imagine it sort of feels like being priced out (i.e., kicked out) of an apartment you've lived in for years, and a neighborhood you've invested in by shopping there, perhaps planting flowers at the park or joining the PTA or starting a business. Maybe you teach school there, or walk the beat or work in the firehouse. Maybe you were very kind to your elderly landlady, and took out the garbage and shoveled the snow. But for whatever reason, you couldn't get a downpayment together (maybe you work in a service profession and don't have family money), and though you worked with ACORN and Neighbors Helping Neighbors, and signed up for every housing lottery, the fact is that you couldn't afford to buy, and you didn't get lucky, so you rent. Yes, I imagine not being able to pay the mortgage feels, to some extent, like being told that your rent is going up $500 a month because the market has changed, and that you'll just have to move, and too bad, but you're a bitter rent-stabbing, bottom feeding moron, so move it along. Probably it feels sort of like that.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 12:34 PM

I sympathize with you 12:34 but there's a big difference between simply having to move and losing your life's savings, going deep into debt and perhaps declaring bankruptcy.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 12:46 PM

I wouldn't consider them "bottom feeders". More like a specialized predator/scavenger who can smell a sick or injured animal from a far off distance and make the kill. However, like many scavengers, they must compete with their own kind for a limited supply of carcasses. These days there may be more sick and injured but their own population has also increased accordingly. People who buy foreclosed properties have some of the strongest jaws in the entire animal kingdom.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 1:01 PM

Thanks for the sympathy 12:46, and I definitely see your side of it. My point is simply that it HURTS to lose your home, whether you own it or rent it. I have enormous sympathy for anyone being foreclosed upon, just as I do for people who are forced out of places they love for other reasons. What a horror. But frankly, I didn't buy, many of us didn't buy, because we COULD NOT AFFORD IT. We were realistic about our choices. You pays your money, you takes your chances. Not everybody rolls the dice and wins. That's reality. But to take pleasure in that feels to me very much like taking pleasure in the fact that MANY PEOPLE rent because they have to, for lots of different reasons. So maybe we can leave all the bitter renter, moron, bottom feeder rhetoric by the wayside, and admit that there were winners, but also fools, victims and those who got left behind on all sides of the recent housing bubble?

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 1:04 PM

Another description for a bottom feeder? A savvy rich person. Did you enjoy laying your whole life savings on the line, mortgaging yourself to the hilt, borrowing money from mom & dad and cashing out your 401k? Wonderful. While you were doing that, I was living in a cheap rental, and saving, saving, saving. And here I come to buy your house. All's fair in love, war and real estate I guess.

@guest 12:46

12:34 here again. I just wanted to add that "simply having to move" is a rather large understatement when it comes to finding an apartment in NYC. It is in fact, a discouraging, frustrating, often wrenching experience, made more so when you are being kicked out of a place you love.

The point -- it's other people we are discussing here, not just dollars and cents, who's up, who's a loser, but people with responsibilities and feelings.

Saying someone is the only one paying their mortgage? Come on. Do you HOPE people are going under? Because with all the nonsense you write, that has been my impression. You hope the worst for people (your neighbors, in fact) and that is MORE scary than any credit troubles we've had.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 1:39 PM

not getting into all this...

but for the person wondering why these aren't publicized more for a greater return for the bank:

this is a specialized field and while there are people from time to time buy a home for their family this way, it is mostly investors. there is a lot of risk involved. but if you go to an auction sometime, you'll see there are lots of people there, bidding on multiple properties and prices get pretty high.

Nice.

Not a pejorative, Brownstoner? I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I know when someone is backpedaling.

Poor "The What". He's just angry that his years of plotting and scheming to buy up Brooklyn haven't come to fruition. Hopefully you'll be able to hold it together while you're waiting . . . , and waiting. . . . In the meantime people are going on with their lives and are actually happy about what they've bought.
The fact that oil is at $93 only reinforces the fact that people will continue to choose to live in denser urban areas. Your master plan of hoping that people will want out of New York and Brooklyn is about 20 years too late. Take that 50-grand you have in the bank and find something else to do with it. Hopefully it involves some psychotherapy.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 4:25 PM

People that pursue foreclosed properties can be described as 'bottom feeders' - that's a perfectly fitting description for someone attempting to capitalize on the failure of a mortgagee for their personal benefit. I don't see why folks are so up in arms about this.

I frequently attend auctions with the hopes of landing an opportunity in this space (yes, I am a bottom feeder and opportunist). Unfortunately, I have always been outbidded in Brooklyn, because properties are so highly priced, and alot of folks know there is opportunity for obtaining a discounted property (feeding from the bottom vs. buying at a premium). Quite simple really!

What's all this nonsense and sensitivity about "bottom feeders". Folks that seek out undervalued stock and buy w/ at a time when companies are suffering in some way are often labeled bottom feeders and they love it! In fact there are a lot of bottom feeders out there buying financial stocks right now because of what's happening in the market. If you're a bottom feeder, be proud, you're buying low and selling high (hopefully).
