As a result, this New York metro foreclosure report now extends beyond NYC to Long Island; the Lower and Mid-Hudson Valley; and Central and North Jersey counties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Foreclosures_Slow_in_71_of_Metro_Markets_Most_New_Jersey_Markets_Down_vs_Just_Over_Half_of_New_Yorks\"><\/span>Foreclosures Slow in 71% of Metro Markets: Most New Jersey Markets Down vs. Just Over Half of New York\u2019s<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, the metro New York foreclosure market slowed after recording 14% fewer cases across the region than in the previous year. Furthermore, this decline cancelled out the increase in foreclosure activity observed in 2023 to bring the region\u2019s caseload slightly below 2022 levels. Specifically, there were 6,221 first-time foreclosures in 2024 and 6,254 in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The foreclosure sector\u2019s slowdown was strong across the metro with 17 of the 24 counties in our report recording fewer first-time filings in 2024 than 2023. That means that 71% of the region saw foreclosure activity decrease year-over-year with the sharpest drops recorded in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NJ\/Somerset-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Somerset County, N.J.<\/a>, (-40%) and Nassau County, N.Y. (-43%).

Noticeably, of the six counties where first-time filings were on the rise year-over-year (Y-o-Y), Hudson County (+8%) was the only New Jersey market. This was in line with the overall stronger slowdown in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NJ\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">New Jersey foreclosures<\/a>: While first-time filings decreased 10% across the metro\u2019s New York component, the metro\u2019s New Jersey counties recorded 20% fewer first-time cases in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, the five locations with the highest numbers of foreclosures in the metro were in just one New Jersey county (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NJ\/Essex-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Essex County<\/a> with 414 cases) and four New York locations, including Brooklyn (451); Nassau County (567); Queens (581); and the metro\u2019s foreclosure hotspot, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Suffolk-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Suffolk County<\/a> (933).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Suffolk County Claims 15% of Metro Foreclosures, More Than the Lower & Mid-Hudson Valley Combined<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year\u2019s foreclosure slowdown in metro New York may have been strongly influenced by the strong deceleration of its New Jersey markets, but it was also sustained by the metro\u2019s New York markets, which averaged a 10% Y-o-Y decrease: The metro\u2019s 12 New York counties went from 4,145 first-time foreclosures in 2023 to 3,729 cases last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, although foreclosures rose year-over-year in just one of New Jersey\u2019s metro markets, among the metro\u2019s New York markets, trends were more balanced in 2024: Foreclosure incidences rose in five of the 12 New York counties in the metro and decreased in seven. The sharpest increases in foreclosure activity were observed in the Bronx (+76% Y-o-Y), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Putnam-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Putnam County<\/a> (+39% Y-o-Y) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Rockland-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rockland County<\/a> (+28% Y-o-Y).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe title=\"Metro\u2019s New York Markets Close 2024 with Mixed Foreclosures Trends\" aria-label=\"Grouped Bars\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-LKge6\" src=https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/LKge6\/2\/ scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"700\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();\n\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conversely, the most dramatic drop in foreclosure cases was observed in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Nassau-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nassau County<\/a>. Here, foreclosures were nearly halved in 2024 with filings dropping 43% below 2023 levels. Consequently, Nassau County totaled 567 first-time cases. While that caseload kept Nassau as the metro\u2019s third-most active foreclosure market in 2024, it was actually the metro\u2019s most active foreclosure market in 2023 and the only county to surpass 1,000 first-time filings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile in 2024, the metro\u2019s most active foreclosure market was Suffolk County, which closed the year with 933 cases or 15% of metro New York foreclosures. This was the result of a 20% Y-o-Y increase in first-time filings. It\u2019s worth noting that the two Long Island counties together accounted for 1,500 foreclosures last year or 24% of metro New York foreclosures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, the two counties also accounted for twice as many foreclosures as the combined caseload of the Lower and Mid-Hudson Valley with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Dutchess-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dutchess<\/a>, Orange, Putnam, Rockland and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Westchester-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Westchester<\/a> counties totaling 754 first-time filings. Long Island even managed to surpass NYC\u2019s 2024 caseload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NYC_Residential_Foreclosures_Make_Up_24_of_Metros_Caseload_Driven_by_Queens_Activity\"><\/span>NYC Residential Foreclosures Make Up 24% of Metro\u2019s Caseload Driven by Queens Activity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year brought lower foreclosure rates to NYC, as well, with the city\u2019s annual caseload dropping 9% Y-o-Y. As a result, NYC went from its 2023 post-pandemic foreclosure peak of 1,620 first-time filings to 1,475 cases in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the borough level, trends were familiar, but inconsistent: While foreclosures trended down year-over-year in four of the five boroughs, decreases ranged between -4% and -31% Y-o-Y. In the end, Queens\u2019 heavy domination of NYC\u2019s foreclosure sector remained the heaviest factor for citywide trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More precisely, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Queens\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Queens foreclosures<\/a> trended down 8% Y-o-Y to total 581 cases in 2024 and make it the second-most active foreclosure market in the metro, only surpassed by Suffolk County\u2019s 933 first-time filings. As a matter of fact, Queens was the setting for 9% of the metro\u2019s 2024 foreclosures and 39% of NYC foreclosures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe title=\"Foreclosures Cool Across NYC, Bronx Bucks Citywide Trends\" aria-label=\"Grouped Columns\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-iZvDy\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/iZvDy\/3\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"448\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Queens' foreclosure hotspot was zip 11434, covering Rochdale, Jamaica, Saint Albans and Brookville. Yet, despite claiming 41 first-time filings, it was not NYC\u2019s foreclosure hotspot in 2024. Rather, it was surpassed by zip 11236 in Brooklyn\u2019s Canarsie, which totaled 47 unique foreclosures last year. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Brooklyn\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brooklyn<\/a> was metro New York\u2019s fourth-most active foreclosure market in 2024 despite a 17% Y-o-Y drop, closing the year with 451 first-time filings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Manhattan\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Manhattan<\/a> was the city\u2019s most steady foreclosure market, inching down just 4% Y-o-Y for the least drastic change among the five boroughs. Manhattan\u2019s most active area for foreclosures was zip 10027. Incorporating parts of Harlem and Morningside Heights, 12 of the borough\u2019s 163 foreclosures were located here last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bronx went against the grain again and foreclosures here accelerated, even as the rest of the city saw incidences decrease. In fact, the 76% Y-o-Y surge in cases logged by the Bronx was the sharpest increase in foreclosures across the metro. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Bronx\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Bronx<\/a> closed 2024 with 144 first-time foreclosure filings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This also meant that the Bronx gave up its post-pandemic role as the city\u2019s least-active foreclosure market, now occupied by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NY\/Staten-Island\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Staten Island<\/a> with 136 first-time foreclosures, the result of a 31% Y-o-Y drop. Notably, Staten Island\u2019s leading foreclosure cluster also switched from the more common Mid-Island to zip 10312, which includes parts of Arden Heights, Annadale, Woodrow, Huguenot and Eltingville. The area concentrated 21 of the borough\u2019s foreclosures.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe title=\"Single and Two-Family Homes Remain Dominant Asset Types in NYC Foreclosure Market in 2024\" aria-label=\"Interactive line chart\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-2zsH5\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/2zsH5\/2\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"521\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of asset types, single and two-family homes represented the majority of residential foreclosures in both 2023 and 2024 with two-family homes taking a slight lead last year. Specifically, two-family homes accounted for 480 cases (33%) and single family homes made up 469 cases (32%). Overall, NYC\u2019s foreclosure market saw a familiar mix and ratio of property types, but co-op and condo foreclosures did slow at sharper rates with 13% fewer co-op and 16% fewer condo units foreclosed in NYC year-over-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NYC_Commercial_Foreclosure_Market_Slows_20_Y-o-Y_Logs_Just_72_Cases_in_2024\"><\/span>NYC Commercial Foreclosure Market Slows 20% Y-o-Y, Logs Just 72 Cases in 2024<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>NYC\u2019s commercial foreclosure sector was also on a declining trend, slowing 20% Y-o-Y from 90 cases in 2023 to just 72 commercial foreclosures in 2024. As has been the case throughout 2023, Brooklyn's commercial foreclosure market was NYC\u2019s most active in 2024 as well, despite a 13% Y-o-Y decline in commercial filings. Still, Brooklyn\u2019s 53 cases represented three-quarters of the commercial foreclosures in the city, including two of the highest liens that went to the block last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Manhattan was still the setting for the top two most expensive defaulted liens, including a $70 million lien tied to 12-story pre-war office building in Koreatown that sold for nearly $27 million back in February 2024. Meanwhile, a nine-story Lenox Hill office building from the mid-80s with a $67 million lien traded owners in June for $34 million. Overall, there were only six commercial foreclosures in Manhattan last year, down from 2023\u2019s 10 cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Queens commercial foreclosures slowed even more, dropping 44% Y-o-Y from 16 filings to just nine last year, while Staten Island had one case and the Bronx three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Top 5 Most Expensive Commercial Foreclosures Sold in 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<table

in 2024<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The foreclosure slowdown of 2024 across the 24 metro counties was strongly influenced by New Jersey\u2019s foreclosure deceleration: Although the metro logged a 14% Y-o-Y decrease, its New Jersey counties averaged a 20% Y-o-Y drop in first-time foreclosures. As a result, the metro\u2019s New Jersey region totaled 2,492 first-time filings in 2024 compared to 3,119 in the previous year. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NJ\/Hudson-County\/Pre-Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hudson County<\/a> was the sole New Jersey market in the metro where foreclosures increased, rising 8% Y-o-Y for a total of 157 cases in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, 10 of the metro\u2019s 12 New Jersey markets saw fewer foreclosures last year than in 2023 with seven of these markets slowing by at least 20% Y-o-Y. And, in some New Jersey markets, foreclosures dropped by as much as 34% Y-o-Y (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/NJ\/Passaic-County\/Foreclosures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Passaic County<\/a>) or even 40% Y-o-Y (Somerset County). It\u2019s worth noting here that Morris County remained flat year-over-year, totaling 180 first-time cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe title=\"First-Time Foreclosures Drop in Nearly All New Jersey Markets in Metro New York\" aria-label=\"Grouped Bars\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-UpNg8\" src=https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/UpNg8\/7\/ scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"700\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();\n\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although foreclosure filings slowed on the metro\u2019s New Jersey side, some markets still stood out.
