NEW YORK (AP) -- When the Kushner Cos. bought three apartment buildings in a gentrifying neighborhood of Queens in 2015, most of the tenants were protected by special rules that prevent developers from pushing them out, raising rents and turning a tidy profit.
But that's exactly what the company then run by Jared Kushner did, and with remarkable speed. Two years later, it sold all three buildings for $60 million, nearly 50 percent more than it paid.
Now a clue has emerged as to how President Donald Trump's son-in-law's firm was able to move so fast: The Kushner Companies. routinely filed false paperwork with the city declaring it had zero rent-regulated tenants in dozens of buildings it owned across the city when, in fact, it had hundreds.

Lock
Him
Up!
(voted) "UP"...
Agreed--- up is where he should be locked!
I do believe he will soon be looking for his Dadums-In-Law to help him beat the wrap. And Ivanka may be looking for a divorce before the ship sinks. However, it could be that she will be facing her own legal dilemma in the near future. The ethics committee is looking closely at some of the things she has said and done, both at home and abroad, in her position as adviser to her Trump.
It's a play in action that will be interesting to watch in the coming months.
I was thinking the same thing!
When Jared married Ivanka it was nothing more or less then the joining together of the Trump and Kushner real estate crime families.
Exactly. And well done by both, as both parties are as crooked as the other.
