That's the kind of house where the owner ought to be presented with a court order. 10 days to clean up the property or it'll be torn down at the owner's expense. It's a safety hazard, a health hazard, and a crime hazard.

[@marilynhemingway5219]

I was thinking the same. Soon it will need to be torn down.

[@LeoInAMillion]

Probably cheaper to have it torn down. All the homeless families in the USA some could have had lovely home if the cities step in earlier.

[@flash21502]

Absolutely, it will need to be torn down. Mother nature is already at work on it. The main roof is gone, so it won't be long now.

[@kazzy1056]

Oh my goodness, you take on some serious stuff over there ( I’m in the UK) you constantly create epic transformations. I know all of your “clients” will be super grateful for the tremendous work you put in. Doing all of this work single handed is definitely difficult all the time but you manage to knock it out of the park constantly. Keep doing what you do because you’re awesome at it 😊😊

[@lauramorris3409]

Do you watch Flawless Cleaning? He is in the UK, but not sure what part.

[@kazzy1056]

@@lauramorris3409 I watch Sean, George from quick cuts from Tasmania (these two guys for me are at the top) kustorez from Germany and a couple more from the US. I will check out flawless cleaning. If I watched everyone my family would starve and wear the same clothes for days 😜🤣

[@margreetanceaux3906]

Living next door must be a nightmare! Depressing and frightening.

[@Linmar9]

So glad for the 400K. You are so worth it! Keep up the good work, you do a fantastic job and we all love your videos.

[@lavane6943]

Before even start watching the video I always thumb it up because I know your are going to do a great job. Your channel and flawless cleaning servicies are the BEST in KZbin.

[@sallyhildreth3663]

Me too!

[@Maryrichar586]

Love Flawless with their brambles and Sean with his Michigan vines. Denver has thistle and it seems like everyone has those trees that spring up everywhere and grow so fast.

[@Ms.Greenleaf]

100%!! Ben and Sean are the absolute best!

[@Maryrichar586]

Many years ago we had a crack house next door, traffic at all times…..day and night. Limos, bikes , taxis, everybody was going there. Police said take down license plates, nothing came of that. Finally the landlord kicked them out. I peeked inside, mattresses on the floor, crib…yes there were kids in the house. Everything was reported but it was the landlord who handled it. The house was sold and redone by a guy like Sean, he helped me with my house for free. I now have different, wonderful neighbors and no stress as far as the neighborhood is concerned. Thank you Sean.😘

[@robertgorman5622]

I'm the same way 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 across the board

[@debbiecagliarini4421]

I would love to see some of the places you clean up months later, looking at how people use the start they are given, I would find this very interesting,

[@karinschwalbe3421]

I would like to see it, too❤

[@Mario22149]

Yes. I would hope they’re not letting the lawns go without maintenance again.

[@harveyvangell8980]

i think we all know they go back to being overgrown and filled with trash

[@maryquinn3982]

Me too 👍 Even if overgrown again

[@beverlyroyal9838]

​@@harveyvangell8980 Especially the abandoned ones.

[@keelhe893]

Love it that this couple offered help and money. Very nice people

[@Terisue-l7e]

I'm sure this is a naive comment/question, but here goes: You are absolutely awesome, Sean! That said, why doesn't the city locate the owners of these places and hold them responsible?

[@JoannaN-573]

What is more shocking is that sometimes the city actually owns the property.

[@blueribb99]

There's a housing shortage now. You would think all the abandoned houses would be sold and turned into homes for families. In this case, that house is probably beyond repair.

[@bevwoerth-um3tu]

One of the things I love about your work is all the details. Fixing things that are little but makes a difference. 🎉

[@HunterTN]

@@blueribb99 There's no housing shortage in Detroit. You can buy a home for a few thousand dollars. The problem is there's no jobs, schools, hospitals, stores, etc. around the property. The land bank owns a lot of these houses, they don't have the funds to maintain all of them. Detroit will most likely never be the size it was in the 60's again.

[@PATRICIAMAPP-OTTLEY]

Hello Superman, another wonderful video to see, i was laughing at the thought of flowers and lights, but after you put it there,the house looked like it came alive. Nice how you also helped out the neighbour. Have a great week, love and blessings to you and the family,see you next Monday.

[@lanardcruse9787]

Sean , you are the man. You’re definitely operating in your calling to be a blessing to everyone you help. Your work ethic keeps exceeding you with every job you do. Keep being the blessing you are. God bless and keep you. 🙏🙏🙏

[@gohilton]

You know, it's a testament to your regular quality of work that when you miss something everyone lets you know about it!

[@robbie2269url]

😂

[@racyharris5471]

I can't believe the police won't do anything especially with a brand new park and kids! I'm so glad they have you doing this. As always its a pleasure watching you help your community and transform these abandon properties to look like someone lives there. Great work as usual!

[@arickett68]

It looks like a nice area especially now the new park is there. This house will obviously be sold for the land - it’ll be a knockdown!!

[@charlenecarbone2478]

Great work!! It was wonderful to see that gentleman helping. Gratitude is so contagious. Thank you for the uplifting start of the week!

[@KKC2-o3z]

Love seeing Sean get some help.

[@MissStormy22]

You are my hero! You go so far beyond cutting the grass, you are truly amazing 👏👏👏

[@gloriasanchez4352]

You do beyond anyone expectations for the community. I pray 🙏🏽 for your safety and strength and your family safety. May the Lord bless you always

[@hiho8084]

Some people just have that special gift...the one that allows them to give so generously and selflessly....it is truly amazing that you do this time and time again. May God bless you for all that you do for others. May it return 10-fold to you! 😊🙏

[@paulinebrennan3260]

Contact health dept or code department. They are supposed to come and board things up. Also contact fire department they maintain list of abandoned properties. If you know someone in the police dept you might tell them you are cleaning it up just so if someone calls they know you are ther or let neighborhood watch know.Another suggestion send your link to the mayor or city council to let them know about this property especially near school or park. Great work!

[@pamkammann1176]

Great ideas! Safety is always a worry when doing these . I’ve also said there should be someone he could contact to let them know he’s there ,for safety reasons .. we just never know these days , especially if squatters are known to be there ..

[@bethnichols2875]

Very true. If a fire were to happen it would be a hazard to first responders, esp. with all that garbage in the house and the ceiling caving in. Not to mention the smell and rodents it would probably attract from the mess, seeping over to the surrounding neighbors' houses.

[@ashotofsherry]

Before you said what you were going to do with the flowers on the steps, I had thought of the same thing. I think whatever you can do to make it look normal may deter. If not, you tried. You always do an amazing job and go the extra mile. If anyone says you shouldn't, delete that comment or don't even read it. We need more people who go the extra mile to help others. You are an inspiration!

[@meyer100879]

I just watched a documentary about how the city of Detroit is coming back to life. I feel you have a big part in that. Another great job

[@whattheysayaboutme425]

Pontiac is north of Detroit

[@williegrant3054]

EXCELLENT CHOICE of Flowers! You should’ve put them in the Ground because this IS the season for Mums and as long as you plant them and there being taking care of they WILL COME BACK YEAR AFTER YEAR❤

[@joanmyers5148]

Sean, you are amazing, thank you for cleaning up that mess,I can only imagine How scary that must be for lady and her children ,You are the Best 👍👏👏👏👏❤️

[@nidiadoherty5405]

You must be the hardest working and most friendly guy on You Tube. Your community is lucky to have you!

[@ChirpyChat]

Watching from Singapore. Those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed by the Lord.

[@CharlesL-xc3ee]

I’m glad that you are supporting your community I hope that you and your family are doing okay

[@stewdog52]

I grew up in the Detroit area in the 50’s and it was tough then. My mom was born there but it wasn’t that bad yet. Thank you for thinking of the children’s safety.

[@kevinross6235]

Two houses in one video? You're a hard working man. The transformations were satisfying to watch !

[@garydodson3858]

Your subscribers have really grown since I started watching. You are truly amazing to watch. And you are affecting others in a very positive way. Congrats.

[@connieconnieb8978]

You always go beyond just mowing and cleaning up a yard. You change people's lives. Thank you for all you do.

[@pambennett-conditt4153]

I have several rent homes and when they are empty, I put a large, plastic flower pot on the porch with fake flowers in it. Love your channel you are awesome.!!!!

[@henriettadenzig3825]

Good morning everyone hope you are having a good day. Greetings from the USA and ohio. Good job Sean stay safe.

[@sabrinawhite7185]

Good morning Sean and everyone, Happy Monday! I pray everyone is having a beautiful day. Sean, I just want to say you are surely a servant for God. You are the sweetest, kindest, most generous, selfless human being I've ever come in contact with on line doing this type of work. God bless you and your family. Blessings on top of Blessings! Have an awesome week!!! Until next Monday!!!🥰🥰

[@anitahunt8160]

This was a good transformation. I love to see the clients you help come out and also help clean up their property. It would be nice also to see that young man helping you on your jobs and getting him a KZbin channel started.

[@MichelleMercado-ck7ws]

What I love about your work is that you don't mind cleaning up and fixing lil damage things that is so awesome of you, I want to thank you.

[@leisasmith4983]

This was a very unique video. You sure are a hero. Those two homes look so nice now with that beautiful park across the street. I probably would have given the fifth mum to the neighbors. It would have been pretty on their porch after the clean up you did. Maybe they will get one to brighten up the porch. Also, how wonderful is it to have someone offering to help you on your projects. Teams can really move mountains.... not that you aren't moving mountains on your own!!!! Great job Sean!

[@delindahouse6357]

The city needs to board that place up tight to stop the activity and protect the children!! Great work answering the call for help!!

[@paulacribb56]

Each video you produce just keeps getting better and better! Your work is stellar, your character is that of a Godly man and the way you help people is the perfect example we all should try to live by! God bless you and your family! Be careful out there and I'll be watching next Monday from my little spot in the corner of South Carolina!

[@lisataylor1723]

Great job I will never understand why people do that to houses hopefully the kids can play at the playground now and parents won't have to worry as much

[@Cynthia-ir6hp]

Monday is Midlife Stockman day. Watching from Switzerland 🇨🇭.

[@JudyHowe-fe3db]

Hi Switzerland! Hope you have a great day.

[@lucyElaine5656]

Thank you again for doing a great yard. What a beautiful park across the street. I hope you call him to help you. There is another you Tube lawn man that is having a homeless man help him and he gives him a little bit of money for his help.

[@MargaritaANikitina]

So many ideas and activities from you, Sean. Great and interesting! Keep going and stay safe👍 It was nice to hear, that the kids from the last week video appreciated your gift😊

[@beckygoley714]

Suspicious is the correct spelling! It’s ok 😂. Anyway you are my favorite yard man!! Thanks you for all your efforts the city should reward you. ❤❤❤ !

[@larryoatka3403]

What draws me to your work Sean, is your flow. your flow confirms to me, 'the way is found in the doing of the work." I am amazed at the events that surround you solely because you choose to work. As you share with us every week, it is not the work that feeds you soul, but the evidence of the lives you touch. May we all choose to put our hand to the till, and find our way.

[@suzil7687]

So well said

[@rickysandoval1837]

Man, u have a heart full of love, and u show it because u use ur own money to buy stuff to help u get stuff done for that house. May God Bless u

[@annwilliams9214]

Thank you for helping the couple with the weed tree growth against their house, siding repair and the cement pile at the front of their yard. That was an overwhelming project for them. Well done!!!

[@jenniferlashley2081]

Love *OPERATION SMOKE AND MIRRORS!* It's great that you helped out the neighbors! You're a hard worker - make sure you pace yourself and don't get burned out. ❤

I catch every vid on Monday! Love from Dallas, TX Sean!

[@lydiasnyder7308]

Super Sean to the rescue 👏. Yes it changed but you helped a community and a couple that really needed it and were appreciated. Can't wait to see him help you in future episodes you can definitely use the help. Sean you are a beautiful soul. Love the energy and the true heart you put into making a difference. God bless you and keep you safe 🙏 ❤️

[@alanemosley2696]

May God continue to bless you in helping others. Love your videos Take care Be safe

[@lisacain1670]

You’re wonderful. Property 1: excellent ideas and amazing work. Previous property ivy: I saw it and I wasn’t gonna be the one to say anything because I know how detailed oriented you are. You went above and beyond with the play set. ❤️ Back to next door to property 1: you’re nuts to be climbing that tree so high. You’re also amazing! Thank you for everything you do! 🤩🥰

[@JeffreyTheTaylor]

With all that roof damage it is just a matter of time before that home collapses in on itself. Sad.

[@pippaseaspirit4415]

I’m so glad someone has provided a chipper! It’s exactly what you need 👍🏻 Woodchips make great mulch while they’re rotting down, and return vital nutrients to the soil when they’ve rotted.

[@jacqueresch6534]

Sean. I love your kind, compassionate heart. 7 don't judge others! Thank u for all u do to beautify the neighborhoods!

[@allielarson5588]

Bless your heart for taking on this project. The city should be helping.

You could tell how tired he was but still got it done he is amazing😤🙏

[@daisykoga2477]

Hi, Sean! I want you know that I so look forward to your weekly transformations, especially when I'm feeling a little sorry for myself because of all my medical issues. You do so much for your community, and you remind me that I have always loved helping people too. You inspire me to do what I can for others no matter how small a gesture I think it is. Living alone is still living, a small gesture can still be valuable, and my medical issues are tolerable when I have a good attitude. I still love people, and I will receive a kidney some day soon. Your great attitude gives me a better attitude, so thank you, Sean, so many times over! I look forward to your next video, as always! Much love and prayers to you and your family. Aloha from Hawaii! Daisy ❤

[@janetpetersen1424]

Daisy, sounds like you have are a delightful person. Trust friends and family return your love. Saying a prayer for your medical needs. May the Lord keep you in the palm of His hand. Love from Mound, Minnesota USA ❤

[@patriciasiefert7140]

Love the flowers and lights!

[@1wolflady]

The abandoned home looks better. Hope it deters the squatters. You could have put that board on the porch on the front broken window. The flowers look nice. It was nice of you to help the lady next door with all those things and so glad you went and took that ivy down. Love watching your videos and all you do.

[@christinesturgill]

I found you a few weeks ago and have, i think, watched all your videos on the KZbin app on my TV. So now i need to go through on the phone and like them all. You have been blessed and God surely gave you the gift of service.

[@andrewtom8339]

As a 60 yr old burnt out man I appreciate the energy you put into your work, physical health problems has me minding my aches and pains, but I live on a new to me homestead, new to me as in me moving back to my childhood home and taking over the house and land that I grew up on, now I am rediggiing springs to irrigate my garden and new and old fruit trees, revitalizing the old orchard and bringing back the natural lawn that is under alot of weeds and brush, definately projects close to the heart, so thank you for the inspiration, you are doing aesome work.
