Builder Admits Making Profit Of Half Million
A New York builder testified before the Senate banking and currency subcommittee that he and his brother earned about a half million dollars from a four million dollar Queens FHA insured apartment project. Marty Wolosoff described boosting the book value of Alley Pond properties by $937,000 to create a surplus and justify $250,900 dividends each. He said the appraisal aimed to reflect an unbiased post completion value for entry on corporate records. He asserted the arrangement followed New York corporate law and noted the FHA mortgage was based on cost estimates rather than actual costs.
