      Another good job.... I think you should go to the Town Hall in these area, and Have a talk with the Mayor of the area, So him/her this Video of you mowing the sidewalk and Ask why the Sidewalks are done just across the intersection but The Grass got that high on a Town/city sidewalk by this House??? are you in another county and that is why it wasn't taken care of by the Town/city workers that get paid to do that stuff???

      There has to be some kind of a tool to make it easier.
      Sad but true you are getting older. I can still do everything at 75 but it takes a little longer

    If the man's daughter never intended to live in it I wonder why she didn't sell it. Having left it empty (and squatters) it would now be unsellable. My heart went out to the man's friend, who tried to keep it up for his late friend. The hard work you did for both the deceased and his friend warmed my heart.

Her yard is almost 3/4 acre & she keeps it nice. She even trims . Amazing lady ... ♥️🙏🏼♥️

She found your videos on YT and has spent countless hours watching them. I guess she's mowing through watching you. Unfortunately for me, when I'm out mowing and trimming she will come out and tell me 3-4 times "That's not how Spencer would do that.". Lol. Thanks again for putting a smile on my wife's face.

    It's always these sweet corner lots that fall into disrepair and neglect. I don't know if the inside is trashed, but it seems to me that this house is already set up for someone with mobility issues to live there. I hate to see properties in nice neighborhoods languishing like this, so am hoping a local realtor sees the potential of this place and works to get it back on the market. Spencer, you did an outstanding job on this one! And kudos to the neighbor who kept it maintained as long as he could in the memory of his friend.

    One thing that I really appreciate is his understanding how to use his equipment to his advantage. That one parking area was so full of dirt grass and junk instead of him laboring trying to use just a shovel, he used his big mower to chop up and get rid of most of it. I think a few of these guys just laboring and laboring with your weed eaters, doing a half the yard, or hauling off branches, one limb at a time.

      Taxes are probably only a few hundred dollars a year on this property. A lot of people also don't want to deal with the finality of selling the home their parents died in. Maybe she grew up there and just doesn't want to let it go even though she'll never use it.

      If you inherit a house in the US and you don't want to live there yourself.
      Why not sell it, instead of it falling into disrepair or being taken over by the homeless

    I don't usually comment because you don't acknowledge anything I've said but I'll try one more time. The wire wheel I talked about would help with those areas like that driveway instead of tearing up your edger blade as well as your back always struggling with your shovel. Love what you do for these neighborhoods. Keep it up.

      If the homeowner did not leave a will, the state has a procedure to follow. If no heirs are located within the prescribed time, the state can take over the property. In my state, this takes a minimum of 10 tears.

      @Cyclone74 Especially with the homelessness rate. Honestly, if it is clearly abandoned, let the squaters be there. They'll take better care of it than the rats and other wildlife that just go and have babies in it

    It sounded like the relatives of his friend were not appreciative of his efforts so you can’t blame him for giving up on a lost cause. I’m sure seeing the property and house sitting there in total neglect has to be upsetting to the memory of his departed friend. Once again it’s Spencer to the rescue to get things tidied up for the neighborhood. You are a real blessing as you go about your mission to help out those in need. Great job pealing back the layers and getting things in shape. I believe that back drive which was edged with cinder block was probably an old floor for a past detached garage
