Rio Vista, Texas (CNN) Nellie Baldwin has been buying rental properties for decades. In April 2011, she bought a foreclosed home in Rio Vista, Texas. "They had smeared feces on the walls," Baldwin said, "in the living room and every room just had a terrible odor." She said she'd always wondered what happened to the family who lived in the home before she bought it. It's really sad to think that children lived in that house," Baldwin said of the Rio Vista home.
