By that argument, Trump's property were worth what the banks approved his loan for at the time of his application.
It should be that simple, shouldn't it?

Stupidity looks good on you as usual.

And Trump’s loans were the amount the banks were willing to lend him based on their own assessments

...or whatever a lender was willing to offer with the home as collateral.

I think that is the entire point.

Agreed.
But if a person submitted inflated numbers on a statement of personal net worth to a bank to show their financial strength as a borrower or guarantor then (like the stuff with Trump), they need to held accountable.

I think we allknow that. And we also know that tax assessments are typically far less than appraisals are and far less than sales prices are. For instance, my parent's home has a tax assessment of ~$450k. However, the county hasn't done a reassessment since 1997 (yes 1997), and the FMV of that home is now $1.6 million. It's also insured for $1.6 million and their HELOC is based on a value of $1.6 million. What NY is basically saying is anyone who pays a tax rate based on an assessment of A but the property's value is actually a higher rate of B is committing FRAUD. It's absurd. The bank's underwriters approved the loan. That's on them for accepting Trump's properties' values. ANd the loan was repaid all the same. If the bank was concerned of being left holding the bag if he defaulted on the loan, that's on them.

This is stupid. His house was worth whatever the buyer was willing to pay.
The hypocrisy comes around the tax piece. Nothing Stewart did was "illegal" - but it's not a great look to ride these low tax assessments and then bitch about other people's harms.
