Since 2008, Schumer has invested $6 million in real estate. The value of these properties is now worth over $25 million, giving him a 400% return.
During the financial crisis, Schumer was able to obtain prime and valuable plots of land at throwaway prices, during auctions, just what Michelle Obama did. For example, a 500 square/foot plot in New York that is worth over $1 million was secured for just under $49,000.
