The Clinton campaign has paid $149,457 to ZFS Holdings LLC, since May 2017 for the purpose of "Rent," FEC filings show, but the campaign has left it unclear if it's paying at, above or below fair market value for the office space it's renting.
Clinton registered ZFS as a single-member LLC shortly after she left the Department of State in early 2013 for the purpose of managing her speech and book income, according to financial disclosures she filed with the FEC. What Is The Clinton Campaign Renting From Clinton's Personal Office?
After Clinton declared her candidacy in 2015, Politico reported that her campaign had installed 10 to 15 campaign staffers and interns to work regularly in the Clinton's Tower 45 office space.
TheDCNF found no indications the campaign has changed locations or that ZFS holds a lease at any other location, so it appears the campaign is paying for a portion of Clinton's Tower 45 office space.
Four staffers are still on the Clinton campaign payroll as of March 2018, two of which appear to be splitting time between the campaign and either Onward Together or the Office of Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The legality of the Clinton campaign's rent payments to ZFS depends on whether the campaign is paying fair market value for the office space it's renting, according to Smith.
The Trump campaign was open about its arrangement with Trump Tower, but the Clinton campaign has been tight-lipped about its agreement with ZFS. ZFS Holdings Is The Technical Name For Hillary Clinton's Personal Office.
