Of course not. First of all, I’m not the one who cited Forbes. Forbes is notorious for undervaluing closely held entities. Of course, you thought a tax assessment was relevant, so you wouldn’t know that.

Now. Would you like to explain why you think the tax assessed value is relevant and why you cited it as proof of fraud?

So you concede he valued it $100-$175million higher than rational estimates.


Was that a value of the property only, or did that include the revenues generated by said property? I am willing to bet it was only the property.

How is such a large discrepancy in square footage of a property a matter of opinion?

You are very much avoiding the discrepancy in square footage of the property. Why is that?

Which property, specifically, are you referring to?

I’ve addressed it twice. You have failed to answer my questions about it. Likely because it wasn’t in the CNN article you base your opinion upon.

You, additionally, are very much avoiding explaining how you thought a tax assessment is in any way related to fair market value. We are all waiting to learn why you argued that?

Surely you have another assessment completed “after reviewing its financial history and consulting eight real estate experts” which arrives at a value closer to the $739million claimed by the Trump org.

I’ll wait…

Correct

A bank is responsible to do their own due diligence

YOU: This tax assessed value is completely irrelevant to the discussion of real estate valuations.

Also, YOU: Here’s a valuation of a basketball team to defend my stance of real estate valuations.

Common sense to anyone that has ever owned property and dealt in real estate. I do enjoy you’re doubling down on it and once again making a complete fool of yourself.

Do you know what a closely held entity is? Do you know what a unique entity is? You laugh because you’re a completely ignorant moron. I guess you missed that everyone agrees getting comps on MAL is impossible. You do know what comps are, right? So I showed a specific example of a closely held unique entity where Forbes was waaaaaay off. Your ignorance doesn’t negate the relevance. Dummy.

That would hurt a lot more if it was coming from someone who didn’t just confess they are not able to comprehend an AP article and need me to break it down for them.

So when I was buying my first house, I looked at and liked a house that was listed for much more than fair market value. I made an offer and was refused. Was I an unwitting victim of fraud? I mean I was at least damaged in the scenario because I didn't get the house I wanted.

Also, when you sale a house, are you gonna list it for exact tax assed value, down to the penny? Seems like the are trying to criminalize negotiation.

Lastly, during COVID, a lot of houses were selling for above market price. Lot of fraud to investigate there.
