Real Estate

ODELL BARNES STORY - THE FORECLOSURE KING

He purchases are in the most distressed parts of the country. Barnes has bought and sold thousands of them over the years, some nice, some not so nice. Most are small and often plain, and all share the same forlorn look of loss.

“[I] bought them for 20 cents on the dollar, or maybe 10,” said Barnes. “Do you really care when you’re buying that cheap, and it’s a piece of real estate? I don’t care.”

He claims he’s a “good ol’ boy” who can’t read anything but a “For Sale” sign. He bought his first house at the age of 14.
