NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- New numbers released on Wednesday show home foreclosures are up 65 percent nationally, and the people losing their homes aren't just the poor and disadvantaged.

 

Channel 4 got a first-hand look at foreclosed homes on the market in some of Nashville's nicest neighborhoods.

"We're on our No. 3 home as far as flipping and there's always something to learn," said C.C. Wiserman.

 

Wiserman and her husband, Phil Wiserman joined a large group of investors that toured several properties Wednesday.
