The millionaire parents of a whiny top DSA leader have set up their socialist son in a $1.5 million Brooklyn home \u2014\u00a0where he lives while railing against the rich and property ownership, The Post has learned.<\/p>\n

Gustavo Gordillo, the 38-year-old co-chair of the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, is peddling his anti-capitalist lefty agenda while enjoying the life in the two-story, nearly 2,000-square-foot row home on a gentrifying tree-lined block in Bed-Stuy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish my family could afford to buy me a million-dollar home,\u201d said local renter Faith Smith, 36 \u2014 who called\u00a0the socialist Yale University grad a hypocrite.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a rich kid,\u2019\u2019 she said of the Yalie. \u201cThat\u2019s basically people who don\u2019t have to deal with the struggles we have to deal with.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Ivy League radical\u2019s converted single-family home was bought in 2019 by his mommy and daddy through a dummy corporation, Chucuito LLC, for just under $1 million, property records show.<\/p>\n

Since then, it has undergone a major facelift, with renovations done to its entire front facade, the planting of lush landscaping, the revamping of the interior and the addition a pair of decks on the roof as well as near the front door, according to plans filed with the borough in 2023.<\/p>\n

Updates to the property continued Tuesday at least on its second floor, The Post observed.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy son and my other son both live there,\u201d Gordillo\u2019s father said when reached by phone. \u201cThe LLC purchased the home, and then we did the renovations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gordillo and his DSA comrades have meanwhile railed against property ownership, calling for a redistribution of land \u201cfrom landowners to the landless.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gordillo also recently attacked landlords in a vitriolic interview on Fox News last month, when he offered up little sympathy for property and other business owners who skate by with small margins.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t think that anybody should have the constitutional right to double-digit returns on their investment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Gordillo has often touted himself as a blue-collar union electrician, with his X handle @UnionGordillo.<\/p>\n

But since 2024, he has stopped referring to himself as an IBEW Local 3 member and instead identified as just some form of a union worker.<\/p>\n

Reports show he joined the IBEW in 2019, but there are no records indicating he made it through the seven-year journeymen process.<\/p>\n

He told the New York Times earlier this year he was no longer an electrician.<\/p>\n

It is unclear what he does to earn a paycheck.<\/p>\n

Before coming to the Big Apple, Gordillo studied art at Yale University, where he graduated from in 2010.<\/p>\n

Gordillo\u2019s father confirmed to The Post that the lefty and his brother live in the revamped Brooklyn spot \u2014 after admitting that the dad had rented a place for the DSA leader on the Lower East Side for $2,600 a month through the same LLC between 2016 and 2019.<\/p>\n

Gordillo worked at an art gallery during those years before becoming an electrician, according to City and State.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

It was unclear whether Gordillo, who listed the LES one-bed, one-bath as his primary residence at that time, repaid his parents for rent.<\/p>\n

Calls to him were not returned.<\/p>\n

An immigrant from Peru, Gordillo grew up in South Florida with his parents, who ended up thriving in America.<\/p>\n

The parents now own a sprawling more than 5,000-square-foot, five-bed, six-bath home in Boca Raton that is currently on the market for $3.1 million, records show.<\/p>\n

They also own another $3 million home in Weston, Fla., that is just slightly larger and has five beds and seven baths.<\/p>\n

His dad, also Gustavo, made his money as the founder of Draftpros Inc., which specializes in engineering and consulting services.<\/p>\n
