Renee Weitzer, an 87-year-old Holocaust survivor, lost the Sunset Mesa home she shared with her 88-year-old husband, Ed. They escaped the approaching wildfire with their medication, some important papers, their dog and a single change of clothing, thinking they would quickly return home.

Jason Oppenheim, one of the leading voices in Southern California’s real estate industry and star of the Netflix reality show “Selling Sunset,” spoke to CNN in an interview about offering his brokerage’s services for free to those who were impacted by the deadly LA wildfires and how he became one of the first notable figures to sound the alarm about illegal price gouging.
