New York City fines Kushner Companies $210,000 for filing false paperwork

New York City regulators have fined the Kushner family real estate company $210,000 for falsifying documents, The Associated Press reported Monday.

The fine comes after an AP investigation in March that showed Kushner Cos. frequently filed false construction permits with New York City saying it didn’t have any rent-regulated tenants in the buildings it owned even though it had hundreds of them.

New York City’s buildings department fined Kushner Cos. “for filing 42 false applications for construction on more than a dozen buildings,” the AP reported.

Was this a targeted investigation or was uncovered during a routine audit or such?

I can't believe as dirty as the NY real estate market is, that Kushner is the only one here?

Was this a targeted investigation...

A safe bet.

   After initially donating to (NY AG) Schneiderman's Campaign for election in 2010 his anti-fraud push into the NY real estate market made some uncomfortable.   
   Shortly after winning re election in 2014, The national enquirer released the bombshell that he does 'sexual role playing' and he got thrown under the bus by everyone, quickly.   
   Apparently, Barbara D. Underwood, his replacement, is not working out well either, for NY real estate developers.
