Renovate America agreed to pay 4 million in settlement of allegations that under previous management it misrepresented the terms of a clean energy program allowing the installation of energy efficiency projects to be financed by placing liens on the property, leading to customer problems when attempting to sell or refinance their homes. The case was jointly prosecuted by the Riverside, San Diego, Kern, Napa, Monterey, and Santa Cruz District Attorneys and the San Diego City Attorney.
