License Revoked But Still Collecting
Description
A Queens real estate broker, David Michael, lost his license in 2015 after 15 complaints for mishandling renter deposits—but allegedly kept collecting cash from desperate tenants under false pretenses, calling himself an “advisor” while advertising on Craigslist. Even after lawsuits won, victims struggle to collect their money, as courts issue judgments but leave enforcement to them. Regulators are investigating, but prosecutors hesitate due to weak evidence, and his listings still appear, preying on vulnerable renters.
