Stop Foreclosure in New York: Trusted Help for Homeowners
If you have received a 90-Day Pre-Foreclosure Notice or a Summons and Complaint in New York, you are not alone, and you are not out of time. Since 1997, United Capital Mortgage Assistance (UCMA) has helped homeowners nationwide since 1997—including many across New York State—stabilize their mortgage payments and keep their homes.
New York is a “judicial foreclosure” state, meaning lenders must prove their case in court. This process can be complex, but it also gives you specific rights and timeframes to act. We provide the expert guidance you need to navigate these challenges and secure a loan modification that works for your family.

FAQs: Foreclosure in New York State
Q: I received a “90-Day Notice” in the mail. What does this mean? A: Under NY law, lenders must send this notice at least 90 days before starting a foreclosure lawsuit. This is a critical warning. It is not an eviction notice. It is your window of opportunity to apply for a loan modification or repayment plan before legal fees begin to pile up.
Q: How long does foreclosure take in New York? A: Because New York is a judicial state, the process takes longer than in many other states—often 8 to 15 months or longer depending on court backlogs. However, you should not wait. The earlier you apply for assistance, the more options (like deferment or modification) are available to you.
Q: Can I stop a foreclosure auction in New York? A: Yes, it is often possible to stop a sale if you have a complete loss mitigation application submitted to your servicer at least 37 days before the sale date (under federal CFPB rules). Immediate action is required.
