    New 2025 Lien Sale: June 3rd

    by Renee Turner-Gregory
    New York City Department of Finance has extended the tax lien date to June 3rd. Homeowners now have until June 2nd to make financial arrangements to settle their tax and water lien debt.
    Currently, there are close to 700 homes in our community that are on the 10-day list. Homeowners need to know that they still have an opportunity to make financial arrangements. Our last door to door outreach was quite successful. Scores of homeowners attended the tax lien meeting sponsored by Councilmember Chi Osse.

    We still have work to do.
    Bridge Street has an updated flyer regarding the new dates. We will not knock on doors, however we will be dropping flyers with updated information at the homes on the list.
    I am volunteering to drive a team to addresses. Stephanie Faulkner has also volunteered to drive a team around. Again, we will not be knocking on doors. You will only drop off a flyer in the mailbox.
    Our neighbors need us. We cannot afford to see 700 neighbors risk foreclosure. Foreclosures impact on neighborhood stabilization. Brownstoners strive to maintain overall neighborhood quality.

    Please contact me at:
    646.209.7314 to volunteer.
