Florida foreclosures could put houses in plastic

From the South Florida Web site: Foreclosures, dried-up
financing and simple bad timing means countless South Florida
construction projects now sit unfinished and all but abandoned. In the
subtropical climate, the wood develops mold and degrades and the metal
rusts. Mike Enos figures he can wrap up this problem, no matter the
size of the mess. Fast Wrap, a franchise operation based in Reno, Nev.,
describes its work as asset protection. Think shrink-wrapping on a
massive scale. Now trying to get a foothold in South Florida, Fast Wrap
claims to physically protect everything from furniture to cars to boats
— and even houses and industrial buildings. It has 11 franchises, and
recently opened one in Dania Beach, conveniently close to a slew of
foreclosed homes in the tri-county area.
