What Date Really Matters?

Most homeowners focus on the Lis Pendens date — but the true countdown starts when a judgment is entered.

Typical Timeline

• Lis Pendens filed → 3–6 months until court
• Judgment entered → Auction scheduled in 30–90 days
• Auction held → New deed issued within 1–2 weeks

How to Find Out Where You Are

• Check eCourts (New York’s case lookup)
• Ask your lender for a status letter
• Call the county clerk for auction schedules
