new report<\/a> by PropertyShark analyzed first-time residential foreclosures across New York City in 2025 to identify trends in the city\u2019s real estate market.<\/p>\nThere were 1,588 first-time residential foreclosures across New York City during 2025, which was 8% higher than the 1,475 in 2024.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NYC foreclosure market heated up in 2025,\u201d said Eliza Theiss of PropertyShark. \u201cStill, the market remained slightly below 2023 levels, the most active post-pandemic year yet for the NYC distressed property sector with 1,619 first-time filings.\u201d<\/p>\n
The number of first-time residential foreclosures varied greatly by borough, with Queens leading the way with 587, representing roughly 37% of all citywide cases.<\/p>\n
Brooklyn had the second-most foreclosures with 460, which was just nine more than the 451 the borough saw in 2024.<\/p>\n
Manhattan saw 208 first-time residential foreclosures, a 28% increase from the 163 recorded the previous year.<\/p>\n
The 208 first-time residential foreclosures in Manhattan represent the most the borough has seen since PropertyShark began tracking data in 2010.<\/p>\n
The Bronx recorded 194 foreclosures in 2025, up from 144 in 2024. The 35% increase was the largest of any borough and the primary driver of the citywide increase.<\/p>\n
For the second straight year, Staten Island had the fewest foreclosures of any borough with 139 in 2025, just three more than the 136 in 2024.<\/p>\n
\u201cClosing 2025 with 139 first-time filings after a negligible 2% Y-o-Y uptick, Staten Island was yet again the least-active foreclosure market in NYC and considerably down compared to its 196-foreclosure peak in 2023,\u201d said Theiss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 The number of residential foreclosures across New York City increased over the past year,…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":535241,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,227239,1736,2513,44984,136015,64,1002,17284,115,64951,2385,169160,236873,236874,163829,62886,48742,87550,104371,4698,42474,7612,88543,108742,236875,139710,219472,26824,40900,42397,1005,17819,37258,5948,32449,10532,405,403,5226,5225,40335,55570,5228,5227,2824,3092,77490,13331,44990,5855,75047,1409,5921,36780,67,586,132,5230,68,2969,3851,45000,129185],"class_list":{"0":"post-535240","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-american-culture","10":"tag-anxiety","11":"tag-architecture","12":"tag-building-exterior","13":"tag-built-structure","14":"tag-business","15":"tag-color-image","16":"tag-concepts","17":"tag-crisis","18":"tag-cultures","19":"tag-day","20":"tag-despair","21":"tag-disappointment","22":"tag-distraught","23":"tag-embarrassment","24":"tag-emotion","25":"tag-emotional-stress","26":"tag-empty","27":"tag-entrance","28":"tag-facade","29":"tag-failure","30":"tag-fear","31":"tag-for-sale","32":"tag-foreclosure","33":"tag-front-door","34":"tag-front-or-back-yard","35":"tag-front-view","36":"tag-frustration","37":"tag-guilt","38":"tag-home-ownership","39":"tag-horizontal","40":"tag-house","41":"tag-lifestyles","42":"tag-loss","43":"tag-low-angle-view","44":"tag-middle-class","45":"tag-new-york","46":"tag-new-york-city","47":"tag-newyork","48":"tag-newyorkcity","49":"tag-no-people","50":"tag-non-urban-scene","51":"tag-ny","52":"tag-nyc","53":"tag-outdoors","54":"tag-photography","55":"tag-plant","56":"tag-price","57":"tag-real-estate-sign","58":"tag-red","59":"tag-residential-building","60":"tag-sign","61":"tag-style","62":"tag-uncertainty","63":"tag-united-states","64":"tag-united-states-of-america","65":"tag-unitedstates","66":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","67":"tag-us","68":"tag-usa","69":"tag-white","70":"tag-window","71":"tag-woodland"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535240"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535240\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
