Bernadette Guzman, who live in the home, said, "I never thought it was going to be something like this. When I first saw it was just starting up. I didn't think it was going to be. I didn't think I was going to lose all my stuff. That's everything I've had but, at least I'm here."

Fire crews say there is fire and water damage throughout the building. They say the flames started in the back of the three-story building.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
