El-Sayed in the hot seat for another foreign rental property, nearly $300K in additional income

Moments ahead of a primary debate Monday night, Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed released a new financial disclosure, revealing new details about he and his wife’s assets worth up to $2.1 million.

The disclosures, which come a week ahead of a heated primary election between El-Sayed and Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., shed new light on El-Sayed’s finances, but questions still remain about the specifics of his wealth.

While, broadly, much of the information was already known through reporting he did last year, the 2026 filing adds three key additions.

El Sayed and his wife listed a rental property in Dubai worth up to $250,000, a liability to a company in Dubai worth up to $100,000 and a tweak to El-Sayed’s employment status in Michigan.

Past reporting had already shown that El-Sayed’s wife owned a rental property in Ann Harbor, Michigan, and another in Bangalore, India.

The Dubai property is a third real estate holding. The debt, worth between $50,000 and $100,000, is a liability owed to Majid Al Futtaim Tilal, a real estate development company that specializes in luxury residential projects.

And, finally, the filing adds that El-Sayed worked as a consultant for Wayne County, Michigan, with an income of $72,000. At the same time, the filing lists a salary of $82,750, also for Wayne County. The consulting is a change from a salaried position listed at $278,900 the year before.

The 2025 and 2026 filings put El-Sayed’s net worth between $870,000 and $2.1 million.

The Michigan race has drawn national attention as Stevens, a more establishment candidate with the backing of Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., squares off against El-Sayed’s progressive promises to challenge the U.S.-Israel relationship, abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and provide universal healthcare. His platform has drawn support from fellow progressives such as Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.

With a groundswell of support among progressives, Stevens has sought to paint El-Sayed as a far cry from the middle-class working-family base he claims to champion, needling El-Sayed over his net worth in a debate last month.

"Look, I am the only one running for United States Senate in Michigan who is not a millionaire," Stevens said at the time.

At the debate Monday, Stevens mentioned the filings and what she characterized as a lack of transparency.

"You have not released your tax returns," Stevens reminded him. "You talk about getting money out of politics and putting money in people’s pockets, but still no one knows who’s putting the money in your pocket."

El-Sayed, who filed the Senate report right before the debate, said he had made the necessary disclosures, sidestepping the comment about his tax returns.

"This is a distraction from the issues in your life," he said at Monday’s debate.

El-Sayed’s most recent disclosures follow an application for an extension that allowed him an extra 90 days to finalize his 2026 paperwork. That extension would have allowed him to submit his disclosures on Aug. 13, a week after the primary. When confronted about the timeline, El-Sayed pledged on a podcast earlier this month to submit his disclosures before the election.

El-Sayed’s campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment about the disclosures or the timing of its submission.
