Bmr Housing Program Dispute

Summary

The BMR housing program in San Mateo led to misunderstandings due to missing refinancing restrictions. After refinancing, a judgment lien was placed on the property despite cooperation with the city. The city profited from the sale, but later claimed misuse of equity, which was disputed with proof. Consider writing to a congressperson or the president, clearly explaining the situation, including relevant dates and supporting documents.
