Donald Trump has multiple loans on his properties amounting to at least $200 million, which may devalue their worth and make it less likely that they will be seized to recuperate the costs of his legal fines.

The former president has until March 25 to come up with the bond amount or New York Attorney Letitia James could begin seizing some of his assets and properties after Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that the former president will have to pay roughly $355 million in penalties for fraud. The February ruling stated that Trump and top executives at The Trump Organization inflated the value of his assets to obtain more favorable terms from lenders and insurers.

The lawsuit, brought by James, initially sought $250 million in damages, but she increased this figure to $370 million, plus interest. With interest, the payment exceeds $464 million.

Wonder if he got bigger loans because of fraudulently overvaluing his properties. Which means that property minus loan will be small, meaning they'll need to sell more properties to pay off the judgement. Plus, commercial real estate is super low after the pandemic. Not really a great time to be selling those assets. Really looking forward to a series of painful losses for TFG.

That’s literally what he was just found liable for in this case and probably why nobody will give him a bond— he’s a fraudster and nobody actually knows what his properties are worth now or how much debt he really holds in them.

It’s probably far more than $200M

The guy that used charity money for Boy Scout fees probably didn't leave much equity in his loan collateral properties.

Unsure if that means the state wouldn't bother selling them off cause no profit (then he can claim he has real estate and puff up his image still, not as bad of an image hit) or just start at the top and go down the list and see what it gets them and leave Trump with bills. Actually kinda curious on what the options really are.
