Customers alleging misconduct started coming into The Mountain Enterprise office by 2011. It was our policy to refer real estate customers with such complaints to the California Department of Real Estate. The name of that agency has been changed to the California Bureau of Real Estate. The Kern and Ventura County District Attorneys’ Offices may also be interested in hearing of complaints.—Patric Hedlund, Editor and Gary Meyer, Publisher
