Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) former chief of staff appears to have claimed a Maryland home as his "primary residence" while living nearly 3,000 miles away in San Francisco, according to a new report.

The San Francisco Standard reported on Friday that Saikat Chakrabarti, a progressive tech millionaire running to replace outgoing Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), claimed a $1.6 million house in Gaithersburg, Maryland, as his primary residence on a mortgage deed.

Chakrabarti told The Standard that he purchased the home for his parents. He added that he has visited them, sometimes for months at a time, since he bought the home. However, he told The Standard that he's never lived at the home full-time.

“I can say it was an honest mistake,” Chakrabarti told the outlet. “And if there is any money I owe, I will of course pay it back.”

The report raises questions about Chakrabarti's path to replacing Pelosi, 85, who said earlier this year that she won't seek reelection in 2026.

Other foes of President Donald Trump with similar mortgage and property records are being prosecuted for alleged mortgage fraud. For instance, New York Attorney General Letitia James and Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) are facing federal inquiries into their mortgages.
