Can Tony buy my Bay Shore 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 Suffolk 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 Bay Shore-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 Bay Shore, New York house? Foreclosure letters from the bank? A sheriff's sale date scheduled? Tony has stopped Suffolk 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.

Tony has closed Suffolk 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. Bay Shore sellers in this situation say the same thing: they wish they'd called sooner.
Bay Shore has turn-of-the-century Victorians and colonials on the streets around Main Street and south toward the bay, 1920s–50s capes and colonials in the middle of the hamlet, waterfront houses south of Montauk Highway that flooded in Sandy, and 1960s–70s ranches and hi-ranches in North Bay Shore near the Sagtikos, where unpermitted apartments are common. Older two- and three-families cluster near downtown and the hospital.
Bay Shore sellers call Tony with a Victorian near Main Street that a parent held for fifty years and never updated, an estate in Riverhead, and heirs who don't agree; a bay-front cape south of Montauk Highway that Sandy flooded and NY Rising never finished raising; or a North Bay Shore hi-ranch with a basement apartment and a Town of Islip code case. Some are landlords done with a two-family near the hospital. Tony buys the Victorian with the belongings, the unraised bay house, and the hi-ranch occupied — one number on the phone, closing on the family's date.
Bay Shore sellers pay the 0.4% New York State transfer tax; Tony's offer is net of it. Town of Islip closings hinge on the certificate of occupancy and rental permits for every apartment and extension — a bank buyer makes you legalize them, and Tony buys "as-is C of O" for cash. Everything south of Montauk Highway is in a FEMA flood zone, which matters to a lender and not to Tony. Deeds record with the Suffolk County Clerk in Riverhead, and Suffolk Surrogate's Court there handles Bay Shore estates.
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.

In most cases, yes — if your Bay Shore 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. Bay-front and canal-side houses in Bay Shore that were flooded, patched, and never elevated are exactly what Tony buys. He needs no elevation certificate and no flood insurance because there's no lender. Tell him what was repaired, whether NY Rising was involved, and what's still open with the Town, and he gives you a number.
Yes — all of ZIP 11706, from the ranches and hi-ranches of North Bay Shore to the Victorians around Main Street, the two-families near South Shore University Hospital, and the waterfront south of Montauk Highway. One call with the address gets you a number.
No. Tony buys Bay Shore houses with unpermitted basement, garage, and second-floor apartments, occupied or empty, and takes on the Town's code-enforcement case after closing. A bank buyer's lender would refuse the file; Tony pays cash and prices it honestly. Don't remove the kitchen before you call.
Once the court in Riverhead issues letters, the executor or administrator can sign a contract with Tony, and a firm cash number often ends the disagreement — each heir sees exactly what they'll net. Heirs anywhere sign with a notary and get wired. Tony buys the house with everything still in it, so nobody has to spend weekends clearing it out.
Bay Shore foreclosure? Don't wait. 1-908-768-4759. Cash buys you out — and often pays you on top.
