NY AG Letitia James admitted Virginia home at center of bank fraud indictment was ‘investment’ property: ethics filings
NY Post ^ | 10/10/25 | Victor Nava

Indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James repeatedly listed her Virginia home as an “investment” property in financial disclosure forms – despite allegedly making false claims to a bank to obtain a favorable loan that barred her from using the house as a rental.

The three bedroom Norfolk, Va., home James purchased in August of 2020 – named in Thursday’s federal grand jury indictment – is listed in the “real estate” section of James’ 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 disclosures to the New York State Commission on Ethics and Lobbying in Government as an “investment,” valued at between “$100,000 to under $150,000.”

However, in her 2024 ethics filing, James designated the Norfolk home as “real property,” rather than an “investment.”

The AG also upped the estimated value of the single-family home to “$150,000 to under $250,000.”

The 2024 disclosure was filed in May of this year – a month after Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte sent a criminal referral to the Justice Department alleging that James had “falsified records” to obtain home loans for a different Norfolk, Va., property.

It’s unclear why James changed the word “investment” to “real property” on her 2024 disclosure.

James did not disclose generating any income from the Norfolk home at the center of the indictment in her ethics filings between 2021-2024.

In her 2020 disclosures, James noted that an “investment real property” in Norfolk brought in between $1,000 and $5,000 in income. However, it is unclear whether this property is the same one mentioned in the indictment.

The New York attorney general’s office and James’ lawyer did not respond to The Post’s requests for comment.

Federal prosecutors allege that James misrepresented how she would use the property when she obtained a $109,600 mortgage loan...

But legal eagles also said that some lawyers may even take up the case pro-bono given its high-profile nature and some left-leaning attorneys’ political convictions to stand up for James, a Democrat.

Sure, let's defend the Attorney General that took on Trump and lost.

She is a lying piece of excrement buy she is our lying piece of excrement.

“no one is above the law”? That POS criminal is still above ground, as are so many other TRAITORS.

If it isn't does that make things worse for her, not better?

She, and all the democrats, say nothing was done wrong. All above board.

She is a lawyer so she knows how this goes. If all her paperwork is legitimate and clear that she did nothing wrong she could get by with any local attorney to clear it up.

Instead, she pays for the heaviest hitter out there, Abbe Lowell.

She had to have known. Now she needs to just say I didn’t know I couldn’t do that, plead guilty but without intent and move on to save herself. She is dead in the water if she doesn’t.
