Can Tony buy my Flatbush house if foreclosure has already started?
Yes. Tony has stopped foreclosure sales 5 days before the auction date. The earlier you call, the more options exist — but Tony has closed deals at the eleventh hour too.
Most New York sellers in foreclosure don't know this: Tony's offer covers your full mortgage payoff at closing — and you often walk away with cash above what you owe. Tony has stopped Kings County-area foreclosures days before the sheriff's sale.
If you're embarrassed to be in this situation, you shouldn't be. Tony has worked with hundreds of Flatbush-area homeowners facing foreclosure. You're not the first person to make this call, and you won't be the last. Tony doesn't judge, doesn't lecture, and doesn't waste your time.
Behind on the mortgage on a Flatbush, New York house? Foreclosure letters from the bank? A sheriff's sale date scheduled? Tony has stopped Kings County foreclosures by closing days before the auction. Cash buys you out before the bank takes the house — and most sellers leave with money on top of the payoff.

The kind of row house property Tony has bought in Flatbush.
Kings County (Brooklyn) is brownstones, multi-families, and pre-war apartment stock. Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights, Flatbush, Bushwick, East New York all have heavy inherited-property volume.
NYC property taxes use Class 1 (1-3 family) assessment that lags market value significantly. Effective rates vary by class but typically 0.8-1.5%.

Tony has closed Kings County foreclosure deals 5 days before the sheriff's sale. The sale gets canceled, the credit hit gets minimized, and you walk away with cash. Flatbush sellers in this situation say the same thing: they wish they'd called sooner.
Flatbush is two housing markets on the same blocks. Victorian Flatbush — Ditmas Park, Prospect Park South, Beverley Square, Fiske Terrace — is free-standing turn-of-the-century frame houses with porches and driveways, many of them landmarked. Along Ocean Avenue, Flatbush Avenue, and Bedford Avenue it's six-story pre-war elevator and walk-up buildings, most rent-stabilized, plus attached brick rows and two-families toward Nostrand. A large Caribbean homeowner community has held many of these houses for forty years or more.
Flatbush sellers who call Tony are often adult children clearing out a parent's Victorian that hasn't had a real repair since the 1980s — knob-and-tube wiring, a slate roof, a basement that floods, and every room full. Others own a two-family where the upstairs tenant stopped paying during the pandemic and Housing Court still hasn't produced a result. Some are dealing with a pre-war co-op apartment the board keeps rejecting buyers for. Tony buys the house full of belongings, the two-family with the non-paying tenant, and the co-op after board approval — one number on the phone, closing on your schedule.
Flatbush sellers pay the NYC RPTT (1% or 1.425% over $500,000) and the 0.4% NYS transfer tax, which Tony deducts before quoting your net. Landmarked houses in the Prospect Park South, Ditmas Park, and Fiske Terrace historic districts sell exactly like any other house; LPC only regulates future exterior work. Pre-1960 houses with a rented unit carry Local Law 1 lead-paint obligations that a bank would raise at inspection — Tony pays cash and inspects nothing.
Every cash buyer, Tony included, starts from the same three numbers: what the house would sell for fully renovated, what it costs to get it there, and how long that takes. The offer is that finished value minus the repairs, minus the buyer's resale costs and margin. In practice that lands most cash offers somewhere around 70–85% of the renovated value, less repairs. The honest comparison is not against a renovated house's list price — it is against what you would actually net from a NY listing after commission, repairs, and months of carrying costs.
| Line item | List with an agent | Sell to Tony |
|---|---|---|
| What the house would sell for fully renovated | $400,000 | $400,000 |
| Repairs a retail buyer's lender will demand | − $45,000 | Tony's problem |
| Agent commission (5–6%) | − $20,000 to $24,000 | $0 |
| Inspection credits, seller closing costs, concessions | − $8,000 to $12,000 | $0 |
| Taxes, insurance, mortgage, utilities while you wait (3–6 months) | − $9,000 to $15,000 | $0 |
| Time to cash in hand | 4 to 7 months | 7 to 14 days |
| What you actually walk away with | ≈ $305,000 to $318,000 | Tony's number, in full, on your date |
Whether Tony's number beats that listing net depends on the house. On a move-in-ready home in a hot NYmarket it usually will not, and Tony will tell you to list. On a house that needs work, has tenants, sits in an estate, or carries violations — the houses retail buyers cannot finance — it is often close, and the seven-day timeline is the difference. Call 1-908-768-4759, get the number, and compare it yourself.

Yes. Tony has stopped foreclosure sales 5 days before the auction date. The earlier you call, the more options exist — but Tony has closed deals at the eleventh hour too.
In most cases, yes — if your Flatbush house has any equity. Tony's offer pays off your mortgage and back taxes first, then the difference goes to you. On a typical NJ or NY property with 10-30% equity, that's $20,000-$80,000 in your pocket instead of vanishing into the foreclosure process.
Tony works with your lender on a short sale. Lenders often agree because Tony's deal is faster and more certain than waiting for sheriff's sale. You walk away with no continuing debt — much better than the foreclosure outcome.
The title company gets a payoff statement from your lender. At closing, Tony's wire goes to the title company; the title company sends your lender exactly what's owed and gives the rest to you. All same day.
Yes, significantly. A foreclosure stays on your credit for 7 years and triggers higher rates on future credit. Selling — even a short sale — has a much smaller credit impact and lets you start rebuilding immediately.
Yes. The free-standing Victorians of Victorian Flatbush are among his favorite purchases because banks and retail buyers get scared by their size and age — old wiring, original plumbing, slate roofs, and forty years of deferred maintenance. Tony buys them as-is, with the furniture still inside, landmarked or not, and prices honestly for what a full restoration costs.
Yes, with the tenant in place. Tony doesn't require you to finish the Housing Court case or get the apartment empty — he takes over as landlord and the case along with it. Tell him the unit count, who's paying what, and where the case stands, and his number will reflect the situation.
Yes. Six-plus-unit pre-1974 buildings on Ocean, Flatbush, and Bedford Avenues are rent-stabilized, and Tony buys them on the actual rent roll with every tenant staying. He'll want the current registered rents and any open HPD violations, and then he gives one number. No vacancies needed and no buyouts.
Only someone with legal authority can sign — a valid power of attorney or a court-appointed guardian under Article 81. If you have that, Tony buys as-is on your timeline. If you don't, his attorney can point you to what a guardianship petition in Kings County requires, and the offer will be there when you're ready.
Flatbush foreclosure? Don't wait. 1-908-768-4759. Cash buys you out — and often pays you on top.
