Gutierrez’s daughter was able to purchase an apartment set aside for “affordable housing” through a program run by Gutierrez protégé Alderman Billy Ocasio. She purchased the apartment for $155,000 in 2008 with a loan from Gutierrez; a year later, she sold the apartment for $239,900, pocketing a cool $84,900 profit.



In 2010, the FBI was interviewing people about Gutierrez’s role in obtaining a favorable zoning change for developer and political supporter Calvin Boender. Getting involved in zoning matters is fairly unusual for a Congressman. So is the $200,000 loan Gutierrez received from Boender.
