Housing Rental Tenant Displacement Resources 

Residents who are facing the loss of housing because of the foreclosure of the house they are renting are urged to verify the credentials of anyone insisting the property be vacated. For help, contact a HUD-approved tenant counseling agency such as the Fair Housing Council of Riverside County or refer to the HUD website for a comprehensive listing of approved housing counselors.

Foreclosure Rescue Scams

Foreclosure “rescue” scams are widespread. You may be the victim of a crime if you have paid a company to "rescue" your property from foreclosure. See the County of Riverside District Attorney’s Office for information on Real Estate Fraud and Prevention. The District Attorney recommends that you file a complaint with Moreno Valley’s local law enforcement, with the Office of the Attorney General - Public Inquiry Unit, P.O. Box 944255, Sacramento, CA 94244, or online at the Attorney General's Protecting Consumers website.
