Can Tony buy my Yonkers 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 Westchester 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 Yonkers-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.
Westchester County foreclosure timelines move slow until they suddenly move fast. By the time the sheriff's sale is scheduled, you have weeks, not months. Tony's title company can pay off your lender at closing and have cash in your hand before the auction date. Many Yonkers sellers walk away with thousands above the payoff.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Yonkers.
Westchester County is a wealthy suburb of NYC: Yonkers, Mount Vernon, New Rochelle, White Plains, Scarsdale, Bronxville. Older multi-family stock and inherited estates are common.
Westchester County has among the highest property taxes in the country, often 2.0-3.0% on high-value properties.

Most Westchester County sellers facing foreclosure don't realize Tony's deal pays off the lender automatically — at closing, with title company funds. You don't have to bring a check to the bank. The wire from Tony's title company to your lender happens the same day you sign. Anything above the payoff goes to you.
Yonkers has multi-families, walk-ups, and detached homes across every section. Tony buys inherited estates, tenant-occupied properties, and tired-landlord rentals. Southwest Yonkers — Getty Square, Nodine Hill, Park Hill, Ludlow — is 1900–1930 frame two- and three-families and five- and six-story pre-war walk-ups; east of the Saw Mill it turns to 1920s–50s Tudors, colonials, and capes in Crestwood, Colonial Heights, and Bryn Mawr, plus large co-op complexes and garden apartments along Central Park Avenue.
Yonkers sellers who call Tony split by side of the city. In southwest Yonkers it's small landlords done with a three-family on Nodine Hill — a tenant in Housing Court, a city code-enforcement order, and a boiler that won't make another winter — or heirs to a frame house on Park Hill that's been in the family since 1960. East of the Saw Mill it's adult children clearing out a parent's Crestwood colonial that hasn't been touched since 1975, or a co-op on Central Park Avenue the board keeps holding up. Tony buys the three-family occupied, the colonial full of belongings, and the co-op after board approval — one number on the phone, closing on your date.
Yonkers has its own city transfer tax of 1.5%, paid by the seller on top of the 0.4% New York State transfer tax — Tony nets both into his offer, so there's no surprise at the table. Closings use attorneys on both sides and record with the Westchester County Clerk in White Plains; estates go through Westchester Surrogate's Court, also in White Plains. Yonkers co-ops need board approval, and multi-families of six or more units may fall under Emergency Tenant Protection Act rent stabilization, which transfers with the building.
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.

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 Yonkers 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 — all of Yonkers, ZIPs 10701 through 10710. Frame two- and three-families in Getty Square, Nodine Hill, Park Hill, and Ludlow; walk-ups on Warburton Avenue; Tudors and colonials in Crestwood, Colonial Heights, and Bryn Mawr; and co-ops and condos along Central Park Avenue. One call with the address gets you a number.
By custom the seller pays it — 1.5% of the price — along with the 0.4% state transfer tax. Tony accounts for both when he quotes your number, so the figure he gives you on the phone is what you should expect to net at closing, with no commission and no closing costs deducted on top.
Yes, occupied and with the order open. Yonkers Housing and Buildings violations transfer to Tony at closing, and so does the Housing Court case. You don't need to make the repairs or finish the eviction first. Tell him the unit count, who's paying what, and what the city cited, and he'll give you one number.
Yes. Tony buys co-ops in the big Yonkers complexes and submits the board package himself. Board approval adds a few weeks, and some buildings limit investor purchases — he'll check the house rules and tell you on the phone whether he can be the buyer. Condos and houses have no board and close faster.
Stop the foreclosure. Call Tony at 1-908-768-4759. Cash, before the sheriff's sale — and most sellers leave with money in their pocket.
