There’s not much information on politicians’ dwellings. Some properties were of interest and got some coverage in the media. Properties of members of Parliament are public, because they have to complete fortune statements yearly. Those who don’t have their residence in Bucharest receive an allowance of more than 1,000 dollars a month (more than double an average rent), so they can easily choose a place in the capital. Here are the houses of Romania’s political leaders.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liviu Dragnea, leader of the Social Democrat party and president of the Chamber of Deputies, now owns an apartment in Turnu Magurele, in his district Teleorman, and lives in another apartment in a central neighbourhood in Bucharest.<\/p>\n

In 2015, prior to his divorce, he still owned a large domain\u00a0in Alexandria, Teleorman, which is now in his ex-wife’s. The property got some media coverage in 2012, when a tv station got to film it from a helicopter. It comprises a large villa, swimming pool, with jacuzzi and underwater lighting, guest house, tennis court and a greenhouse for growing organic products.<\/p>\n
