In that case, the plaintiff who filed the notice of pendency already had a recorded interest in the property, having recorded his mortgage, and the notice simply preserved an existing property right. Other cases cited by plaintiff are similarly distinguishable because, like Goldstein, they involved a plaintiff who already had an established interest in the property, or a defendant who was not a good faith purchaser for value ( Novastar Mtge., Inc. v Mendoza, 26 AD3d 479; Roth v Porush, 281 AD2d 612; Green Point Sav. Bank v St. Hilaire, 267 AD2d 203, lv denied 95 NY2d 778; Morrocoy Mar. v Altengarten, 120 AD2d 500 [specific performance available because defendant was not a good faith purchaser for value]; Stephens v Snitow, 95 AD2d 806, lv denied 60 NY2d 557 ; United States v McCombs, 30 F3d 310 [2d Cir 1994]; In re 19 Ct, St. Assoc., LLC, 190 BR 983 [SD NY 1996]; Nitchie Barrett Realty Corp. v Biderman, 704 F Supp 369 [SD NY 1988]). In the case at bar, specific performance was an impossible remedy since M-P-M did not have title to the subject property at the time the action was commenced, and, under New York law as stated above, a contract vendee such as plaintiff does not, by virtue of the filing of a notice of pendency, create an interest in real property superior to a subsequent good faith purchaser from the same vendor who records a contract or conveyance.
