Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Mamdani Publishes Names of Property Owners Whose Estates Will be ConfiscatedElderly women who had lived at their properties for decades were in the lists. Note it's supposed to be a list of basically-empty properties used as a vacation homes or, as the name of the tax puts it, pied-a-terres. But properties where the owner lives there year-round are on the lists of estates to be seized. Weird! A socialist promised he would only seize the properties of the very wealthy turns out to want to seize the properties of the middle-class as well. I never saw that one coming.

New York is unique in that property records are generally easily available. So this is a big deal.
But if you have a modicum of knowledge, you can find this information very easily in almost every other city/county. Posted by: Formerly Virginian at July 28, 2026 12:26 PM (N1DT3) 6

Get a load of this:
Alex Berenson @AlexBerenson · 21h Last week, my mom got a "pied-a-terre" tax notice. She has lived full-time in her townhouse FOR 30 YEARS (she and my dad bought it for under $1 million). She has no other residence. Is NYC not bothering with basic checking of its own tax lists? She's 81 and has three weeks to get her name off the list or she owes $56,000. (Yes, I said I'd help.) Thanks, Zohran Kwame. Posted by: beckster at July 28, 2026 12:31 PM (kX27y) 13

Should I care that people who have funded Democrats for years are now crying for the beast to eat them last? Because I don’t.
The people in NY have voted like it’s a team sport for many years now. They trample any opposition using the legislature as their hammer and graft machine. All the various groups, including the Jewish community Democrats have now declared public enemy number one, have benefited greatly from the soils system they setup with the political leadership. So forgive me if I say EATADIK. Posted by: Vengeance at July 28, 2026 12:32 PM (E24OL) 19

Oh no. A tax that only affects people with second homes in NYC valued over 5 million dollars. How burdensome to the general population. Truly everyone will feel it. /s MAGA says it’s communist for these people to start paying taxes after jacking up property values in nyc just to never actually live there. 🙄 These are public property records. They've been publicly available in New York State since 1830. I could've searched up any one of these through the County Clerk's Office in seconds. MAGA is freaking out over nothing.

Key Exemptions to the Surcharge Primary Residences: Used as the primary home by the owner, their immediate family, or majority-interest entity owners. Long-Term Rentals: Rented out via an arm's-length lease for a minimum of one year where the tenant uses it as their primary residence. Value Thresholds: One- to three-family homes valued under $5 million, and co-op or condo units valued under $1 million (during the initial phase-in period). Property Types: Standard rental apartment buildings, commercial real estate, hotels, vacant land, unsold sponsor units, or a block of more than three condos under single ownership. I have acquaintances from bougie NJ who've separated NYC property under (for example) the wife's maiden name since purchase & also keep her name from showing up on their NJ properties, too.

I got a big increase in assessed value last time I had a guy come out.
And the thing that amazes me is I have added nothing since buying the house - merely fixing things that are failing apart. I called to complain and got the argument "we could send someone out again but you know the assessment could go up too" Posted by: 18-1 at July 28, 2026 01:18 PM (sKqQm) 256
Regardless, a targeted list is … to target people and addresses. While some of the buildings will have security and a doorman to discourage easy pickings, many others will not.

Posted by: Elric The Blade Most people are too lazy to scroll through to find the one they want and this gives them a master list for mischief. And I think Mamdani is going to pay for that politically and perhaps legally for being an impudent little greasy shit. Posted by: whig at July 28, 2026 01:13 PM (E4rtv) _______ DOF just linked to the same tax roll lists that were put up earlier this year. It was already public. So legally, he didn't do anything that wasn't already done. Politically? Maybe but I doubt it. 95% of the ragebait and doomscrolling about this clown are from people who don't live in NYC. And in theory at least, the tax won't apply to anyone who does. Posted by: Elric The Blade at July 28, 2026 01:18 PM (iFTx/) 258

The goal of the left is to loot YOU. You personally reading this post.
If you have a job and save anything they want to take it. Why? Because they want things without having to work for them - which is a story older then recorded history. They won't stay in one spot because they can only loot that spot so much. Posted by: 18-1 at July 28, 2026 01:19 PM (sKqQm) 263
I don't think Mamdani particularly cares about New Yorkers' opinion.
The left wins elections in NY by a comfortable margin, so it is more of an issue to be selected in the primaries, where the voters are even more extreme. There, doing this will help. If lots of people abandon the city, then the ensuing depression will push even more into his arms. I don't think Detroit has become more right-wing ever since it went bankrupt. Besides, he and his allies have national ambitions. Even if they destroy NY, they can still turn it into a propaganda success, like Newsom in California.

Posted by: 18-1 Fact is with a minimum of due diligence, you can do the comps your self with Zillow or Realtor dot com and appeal anyway. Something like 30-40 percent success rate as the dirty secret is these appraisal firms deliberately overvalue property figuring that a) some people don't appeal because now they have a govt set price for their home (usually those planning short term stays), and b) others won't due to fear, etc. I've done it several times over the years and won about as much as I lost.

“The legitimacy of the Supreme Court is, I believe, the lowest it’s ever been in the eyes of the American people. It’s come to feel like a nakedly partisan institution. We could do some things about that. At a minimum, term limits so that you know for each presidential term how many Supreme Court appointments are going to go with it. I also think we would be better off with a court that has something like 13 justices that would match the number of districts that we have in the federal system, and ideally appoint them in a way that isn’t so partisan.”

It entered receivership in 2020 and filed for Chapter 9 bankruptcy in 2022 to restructure its pension and retiree healthcare debt.Jan 22, 2026 It has casino $, money from the Union soccer team, a Riverwalk 😱, Widner University, etc. and it's still a dump and votes democratic right down the line, marching in step with the County Council - NONE of which are "working class." And everyone employed in Chester, PA seems to work for one government system or the other.
