A pair of beleaguered Brooklyn landlords whose properties were allegedly taken over by a convicted sex abuser facing an attempted murder charge have finally gotten their buildings back.

The NYPD and a city marshal arrived Friday to oust 10 people who had been living illegally in the trio of rundown Neptune Avenue homes owned by Mohammed Choudary and Boysin Lorick, who had struggled for years to boot the squatters.

When the pair bought the homes in 2019 for $1.3 million, Peter Fonseca, 45, was living behind one of the garage’s and refused to leave, according to court papers.

Who in the right mind would want to be a landlord in any major city anymore?

or live in a major city.

you could go out for dinner and find someone else moved in to your home when you get back and have pretty much the same problem.

Providing once again that the best help is self help.

For $1.3 million, they could have owned 5 rentals in a safer state/city.

They'll sell for much more than they bought for. This was a flip job. In NYC it takes a lot of time to evict someone even if they are there illegally. But once they are gone and the property is clear, you can sell for big profits.

The problem here was that COVID stopped the eviction process cold for two years. They bought at the exact wrong time.
