El Paso Woman Facing Foreclosure Allegedly Tricked Into Signing Away Home; Investor Rented Out Premises After Taking Possession

In El Paso, Texas, KFOX-TV Channel 14 reports:
  • A former El Paso woman says people are living in her Lower Valley home that she never sold. Tammy Diaz asked a real estate investor to help her sell this home more than two years ago. Diaz moved to Corpus Christi, and almost never heard from him again. Diaz in 2007 faced a separation from her husband and impending foreclosure on her home. So she reached out for help. "He made it seem like everything was real perfect, he was going to be able to sell our house for us," said Diaz.

  • Diaz is talking about Lorenzo Trujillo. Diaz was under the impression that Trujillo was going to sell her home in 45 days, but two years later, she said she had gotten no news from Trujillo. "About a month ago my daughter went to El Paso and she told me, 'Somebody is living in the house mom.' And I was like, 'What?'" she said.
