Creditors are coming after Rudy Giuliani's $3.5 million Florida condo in bankruptcy filing

Rudy Giuliani may have to sell off his Palm Beach, Florida home — his second most valuable reported asset, creditors said — to help settle his debts in bankruptcy court. Giuliani, who filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, owns two residences, per a Friday filing in federal court.

One is his $6.5 million primary apartment in New York, which Giuliani had put up for sale last summer but took off the market in February. Per court filings, Giuliani's New York apartment is an exempt asset because it is his main residence. Then there is his $3.5 million Florida condo, which is not exempt.

Creditors, who describe the condo as a "luxury building with amenities such as a resort style pool and outdoor lounge area," said the building is key to helping Giuliani satisfy their claims because he insists he has so few assets. The filing was first reported by Politico's Kyle Cheney.

On several occasions, the Debtor has emphasized his limited assets available for distribution to creditors — according to the Debtor's counsel, 'there's no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow,'" the filing said. Even if he does try to say that he is entitled to live in Florida, creditors wrote, his argument falls apart because Giuliani has previously told the court he spends most of his time in New York City.

...and seemingly unable to get off this runaway train that his life has become. He reminds me of Bradley Cooper's character in the movie "Nightmare Alley".

above sleazebags was a national disgrace. Rudy was already a demented, crooked little alcohol junkie before then.

As a born & bred NYC'r I don't remember that. 🤔

I disliked him already because 🤬 he attended, and egged on the police who were having a City Hall rally against then Mayor Dinkins.

12. Why is his $6.5 million dollar apartment exempt?

I thought New York limited the homestead exemption to something in the $100,000-$200,000 ballpark depending on which county it was located in?
