We’ll fight to pass the #CommunityProtectionAct to tax real estate speculators and protect our neighbors from predatory house flippers.
We'll push to protect small homeowners from foreclosure, while also advocating that the city ends the harmful tax lien sale.
The data is showing what we’ve known for years — our communities of color here in North Brooklyn are extremely vulnerable to displacement. To protect tenants and small homeowners, we need to pass #GoodCause and the #CommunityProtectionAct NOW!
According to a new tool developed known as the Equitable Development Data Explorer, Cypress Hills & East New York neighborhoods are ranked as having the “highest” level of displacement risk. Residents of both neighborhoods are mostly people of color.

We need to keep homeownership within reach for working and middle class NYers.
By exempting home purchases under $750k from the mortgage recording tax, the #CommunityProtectionAct would boost homebuyers with higher loan-to-value ratios.

Many neighborhoods in the Bronx had over A THIRD of their homes purchased by investors in 2021.
Speculative fast-flipping by investors is wreaking havoc in NYC.
The #CommunityProtectionAct would keep NYC families from being pushed out of their homes

Property flipping—investor buys a home & resells for a quick profit—drives prices up for would-be homeowners, raises property taxes & rents, and provokes harassment of homeowners, who are majority Black & Latinx, in gentrifying neighborhoods. We need the #CommunityProtectionAct

While NYC families struggle and we face a major housing crisis—esp. for Black+Brown people, seniors, and workers who lost income due to covid—real estate investors are getting rich.
We need the #CommunityProtectionAct now
What's the #CommunityProtectionAct? A bill that taxes predatory real estate developers who buy up homes and sell them at a mark up—raising property taxes, rents, and home prices in majority Black and brown neighborhoods.
Here are the neighborhoods the bill would most benefit ⬇️

Middle class New Yorkers (who have long been able to buy 1-4 family homes in the city's outer-borough neighborhoods) are being pushed out by exploding real estate prices. The #CommunityProtectionAct would help protect homeownership for these families.

The #CommunityProtectionAct would exempt home purchases of under $750k from the MRT. Who benefits? Black & Latinx buyers who tend to pay more in MRT b/c their FHA loans have higher loan-to-value ratio. Homeowners across the city would benefit, esp those in Queens & Brooklyn

Here's what a typical flip looks like. Flipping causes small home prices and rents to rise dramatically for the ENTIRE neighborhood, causing displacement & destabilization of communities. We need the #CommunityProtectionAct to protect NYC neighborhoods from predatory real estate
