Discussion about
Published list from the Dept of Finance and DEP for RE taxes and Water/sewer charges, respectively. I was surprised to see units at 444 East 57th Street listed with 7 units. Any more pearls on this list?

A list of all at-risk properties was published in today’s New York Post as well as community newspapers throughout the City.

It is posted online at nyc.gov/liensale.

Use this address with the block and lot. http://nycserv.nyc.gov/NYCServWeb/NYCSERVMain

One individual was responsible for the multiple listings at 444 East 57th - a hedge fund manager who went down in flames.

Damn. Someone is gonna make it mint buying these and renting it out for a few years. In RE you only make money of you can hold on during credit bumps. Just hold on.

Go team RE

Gotta have horizons over 5 years. Look at RE. Imagine if you sold at the depths of the depression. Flipping is not investing. Holding on and using the equity to buy more and the ability to hang on thru credit cycles => investing.

Call your congressman/senators. RE is the only game open to us little people. RE cap gains tax shield should be adjusted for inflation. Come on. SS is indexed.

w67th - Doesn't look like the guy is looking to sell the 13 units he still owns in the building; he used to own 14, but one was foreclosed on in 2011. Either way, I feel for the other owners. There are only 60 units in the building; to have such a large percentage owned by a deadbeat must be awful. I am doing some research on another deadbeat hedgefund manager, and I just might dig a little more on this one out of sheer curiosity.

Paul Schack is the owner of multiple units at 444 East 57th. I don't know anything about his personal finances or whether tax liens and common charge liens have been settled. For that matter, I also don't know whether the liens were proper to begin with; taxing authorities have been known to file erroneous liens. It would be odd, however, for both taxing authority and condo board to be wrong in alleging nonpayment.

Discussion of 444 East 57th situation that has hopefully been resolved 7 years later.

Also looks like litigation was settled in 2017, and 2011 foreclosure order was vacated with title on the foreclosed unit reverting back to prior owner. DOCUMENT ID: 2017121900491001
