My name is Samuel Virga. I live at 3015 Krashey Way in Louisville, Ky. On April 3rd,2015 I was flooded out of my home. The flood was considered a national disaster. I hired a contractor and  he provided all the correct paper work to send to the insurance companies.He told me that it would take about 2 months to repair my home.When I went to get the permits from MSD and the city of Louisville. At that time, they told me that I had a choice to tear down my house or raise it up out of flood zone.So I chose to raise my house.I went to FEMA & ICC  to recieve the benefits to raise my home.Recieve the benefits  to raise the house. The contractor told me that his crew could raise the house up.I went through the insurance company to get the funds for the contractor.The contractor  perpair the house for raising.His crew took the bricks off the house,took the windows out ,patio doors out & gutted the inside the house & no walls left inside the house. .During that time, I gave him half the the money to raise the house and he took the money and left me with a home in disaster.While I sit in hotel room, I found out that  his crew  went through my personal belongings that he was storing in a warehouse he was renting, They took over half  of the belongings,while he had his foreman living in the warehouse. So my girlfriend & I  plus 4 dogs are living in a storage building.  The money would be used to raise the house and repair the inside the house or replace the house. Need the funds as soon as possible because we been living in the storage building since Nov. 12th,2016. Living in a twelve by fifteen  ft. is no fun ,no running water,heat, or bathroom. We would be very,very thankful.
