But according to two separate Russian financial databases (Larix and Cronos), Weiss found that she went from a salary of $1,559 a year in 1993 to earning $53,645 in 2003. But, what sparked the most curiosity was how she bought pricey properties situated a short distance from Vladimir Putin's presidential residence.
In August 2003, before the lion's share of that $53,645 was earned, the Russian land registry shows that Veselnitskaya was somehow able to buy two large plots of land in an elite residential community in the Moscow suburbs -- properties that cannot have been sold for less than $500,000 apiece at the time, according to two Russian brokers with extensive experience selling in that area, Weiss reports.
A majority of her 2003 income was made after she bought the property in DSK Riita estimated to be worth $1 million. Three years later, she built a home on the land, which can be seen in a 2015 promotional video for another home in the neighborhood.
"The cost of developing completed houses in that community in 2006 were in the ballpark of $10 to $12 million," Anya Levitov, a Russian broker told Weiss.

An innocent little lawyer, with a pretty standard 5-figure-salary... can somehow afford to buy prime real-estate in an elite neighborhood for $10 million.
Now, there's definitely no corruption going on when this squeaky-clean lawyer can afford such expenses and there's absolutely nothing fishy happening when she meets Trump Jr. to discuss russian adoptions.
It is absolutely laughable to assume that she's a go-between for rich and powerful people who value her services enough to finance her $10 million home.
