Eric Trump Testifies at Father's Fraud Trial, Documents Suggest 'Lofty' Golf Course Valuations

NEW YORK (AP) — The spotlight at Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial turned Thursday to the former president’s son Eric.
Documents and testimony suggested Eric Trump envisioned a “lofty” value on a suburban New York golf course where the family business proposed building luxury townhouses.
Trump denies the allegations and says the documents actually underestimated the value of his prime properties.
An appraiser said Eric Trump may have had a “more lofty value” in mind, but a higher number wouldn’t have been credible for the property.
A lending executive said Donald Trump’s claimed net worth played a role — but not a key one — in securing a $160 million refinancing loan on a Wall Street office building in 2015.
