A 5,734-square-foot, two-family brick property located in Borough Park, Brooklyn, is scheduled for auction on December 19, 2019, with a lien of $234,061. The auction will take place at 2:30 p.m. at 360 Adams Street in Brooklyn, New York.
The property at 1372 56th Street was purchased by the current owners in January 1988. In 2007, the owners took out a mortgage for $200,000 from JP Morgan Chase Bank, which is the mortgage in foreclosure. Several other mortgages had been taken out, but all others have been paid in full.
A lis pendens was first filed in 2015 for $200,000 by JP Mortgage Chase Bank and was refiled in 2018. The foreclosure judgment was handed down in September 2019 and remains active, thus leading to the foreclosure.
A Comps search shows the estimated market value of the property to be $2,987,414. This number is based on six sales in the last six months, all of which took place within a half-mile of the property and involved the same property class: Two Family Brick (B1). The building is three stories high and semi-attached; it also has a 1,433-square-foot basement.
