		<description><![CDATA[According to RealtyTrac, there are 1,878,270 foreclosure homes across the US (as of the writing of this article), and the number is quickly growing as the banks foreclose on more homes each day.  These properties are usually left in poor condition and make for tempting targets for vandals.  Before these homes can go back on the market, they need to be trashed out, cleaned up and fixed up - a process called, "foreclosure cleanup and property preservation".  The need for this type of service has grown exponentially over the last year and makes for an excellent opportunity for an entrepreneurial-minded individual.  Because the start up costs are low, and the profit potential high, this has become one of the fastest growing new businesses in America.  Are you thinking of starting up a Foreclosure Cleanup and Property Preservation Company?  Read on to learn how.]]></description>
