Housing

If a constituent has an issue with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or a local housing agency my District Office may be able to assist you. If you feel that your efforts to resolve the problem have been unproductive, please contact my office. While our jurisdiction is over federal agencies such as HUD, my staff will consider each case on an individual basis. We aim to facilitate communication between our constituents and government housing agencies.

To open a case, please send a letter with your contact information. My office may be able to write a letter to the federal agency and help relay constituent concerns.

To request assistance electronically, please use the Online Casework Form, or call my District Office directly at 510-763-0370.

Please also visit the Avoid Home Foreclosure Page for tips and resources that can help you avert the loss of your home.
