Caption/Description

In another one of John Carney's soon-to-be homes, Gabrielle Velasquez, watches at friends carry furniture from her home in Cape Coral, the night before she was going to be evicted. Rodriguez said she had put $30,000 of work into the home she was renting to buy, but because the owner didn't pay the mortgage and was foreclosed on, she had to leave it all behind.
