She has Cancer and they STOLE her Lawn Mower | Mowing Overgrown Lawn

Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel. My name is Bryan and I like to help my community in my free time by mowing overgrown and neglected properties. For today's video I will be helping a homeowner who has cancer and is currently going through chemo therapy.
The homeowner was renting this property to a couple for the last year or two. She told me that when they first moved in she made a deal with them. If she left her riding lawn mower in the garage, they would mow the lawn every other week. About a month ago they packed up and moved out. Not only had they not been mowing the lawn like they promised, but they took her lawn mower with them when they left.
Now the lawn is overgrown, she does not have a mower, and even if she borrowed one she is not physically able to mow due to the chemo treatments. The grass has been overgrown for a while now, so the city has issued a violation and has imposed a fine. If the lawn is not mowed soon she will be forced to pay the fine.
What surprised me the most about the entire situation was the fact that the city owns the vacant property next to hers. It's overgrown and the trees are touching her house. I was shocked that they are fining her for her lawn but not maintaining this lot.
Have you ever experienced or heard of a situation like this with the code compliance in your town? Feel free to tell your story in the comments. Hope you enjoy the video and please don't forget to subscribe to the channel. See you next time!

My husband and I (both 67 now) had a code violation for "tall weeds and long grass" about five years ago. Since neither of us is in the best of health, the Village came out and mowed it for us...and charged us $150 for the service. We live on Social Security, so it was a big hit. As painful as it is to get out there now, we try to keep it cut back. We also got a citation for "peeling paint" on the garage, so my daughter and I went out and put a coat of primer on the door. We fully intended to put a topcoat on it, but the weather (and again, my health) didn't cooperate. I wish there was a Senior Services Association that actually HELPED seniors on a low-income budget to get these things done at a reduced cost.

[@Carlos-bz2pe]

Great job!

[@GaudiosaHechanova]

❤❤❤

[@katchewy2469]

I agree. Those of us on limited income and poor health need services done, and when we ask for help, we either get no response or a "sorry, you make too much money to get anything." Our government needs to fix these problems.

[@KarenBrooks-l4r]

I would help people who’d need the help, I’d love to. Some of the lawn businesses charge soo much for there service, I know there making a living and all but I know of one case where an old guy really got nailed hard, very upsetting…..and they didn’t do a very good job either. You sure do awsome work here. I wonder if karma will catch up on thoughs renters who stoled her ridem and left the yard in this condition.

[@SueLaLone]

Try reaching out to local churches, I bet some would be glad to help . Or, St. Vincent dePaul. ​@@katchewy2469

[@JillBallenger]

Speaking from personal experience, renters can be a nightmare. Not worth the trouble to me anymore. she's probably lucky they didn't destroy the house. At least you're taking an interest and helping her out.

[@GenXmember]

Landlords aren’t exactly without fault. There’s some pretty shitty ones.

[@unclefester6033]

Depends on who you rent to!. I myself rent & have 2 acres of grass that I keep cut, I do all the maint on the filters in water lines & furnace. My yard is kept sprayed for pesticides all this on my own tab!🤔

[@terrileyda5346]

Great job!

[@helenwhitsitt3789]

Nice job

[@tammystark6364]

I want to say thank you. I have been in a similar situation. I am lucky, I have great neighbors. I got home from the doctors one day and my whole lawn was done. It was wonderful to know that it was one more thing I didn't have to figure out a way to get done. Never did find out who it was

[@joy2own]

I hope you report the neighboring property for code violations. Just give them the address. 😂 Nice work! ❤

[@leabarto8156]

He said that property is owned by the city. They obviously don't care.

[@joy2own]

@@leabarto8156 that's not the point. They aren't immune from the law... they have the same responsibilities.

[@leabarto8156]

@@joy2own I do agree with you.

[@SFHCommish_1]

RARE sunny day! Pretty raunchy for somebody to steal somebody’s mower more especially when they’re down with cancer. I hope she pulls through. And huge props to you for doing this for her! 🙌🏻

[@ilovecornell]

Right..should have put a tracker on it. The worst part is they stole it but never even used it to mow the property!!

[@lanardcruse9787]

Amazing work on that yard. Thanks for helping her get her yard cleaned up.

[@marionadams1701]

Nice job especially taking the tree limbs off the roof line. One of my daughters is on chemotherapy so I know how exhausting it is. Her renters sure showed their character stealing the riding mower, such low life they showed themselves to be. Sad…

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

Excellent job Brian . I am proud of you young Man !

[@SueLaLone]

Man, trimming those branches off the roof was HUGE. You saved her untold dollars in damage down the road. Well done, sir💪😎💕

[@SereneAzaleaFlower-mm9tp]

Thank you for helping this lady in need. It look stunning. God bless

[@greghughes2621]

Wow! What a fantastic transformation. A lot of hard work went into that yard and it looks great. Im sure the neighbors are very appreciative.

[@marthawheeles5497]

Great work! Hope she can get her mower back!

[@LoraineBailey-w4i]

Mow the lawn next door and charge them lol or make a video out of it Glad you helped this lady out 💯👍👍👍

[@Pauline-h3u]

Looks fabulous, what a difference you have made for the lady, what disgusting renters ❤❤. Pauline. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@Mickeyd-ys7cb]

Amazing transformation so glad you were there to help praying for the lady

[@teribelleau137]

You brought that cute little house back to life. Renters can do A Lot of damage in a very short time. Excellent job❤😊

[@dennishimes4545]

Amazing job. I appreciate you raking and removing the cut waste. It makes the yard Pop

[@morganmom194]

Someone needs to talk with several city officials about their lot. If that doesn’t work a check with the local government attorney might help clarify what the cities’ responsibility is. Job well done! I know she is so thankful for you!

[@thomastarwater6035]

I’m glad you helped out that landlady, after she got messed over by those thieving tenants who stole her lawnmower. So hopefully the city weenies will lay off her and tend to the property next door that the city actually owns. You helped her out when those so-called neighbors didn’t.

[@producethom4875]

Your channel is growing keep up the good work

[@producethom4875]

Thank you for that wonderful cleanup

[@ruthstory2277]

Beautiful job Bryan!! Looks awesome!! Shame on the city for their double standards!!

[@surfinoperator]

What an AWESOME & FANTASTIC TRANSFORMATION 😊

[@nancyjenkins3716]

You do an exceptional job. I appreciate that you rake all the grass clippings and take out all the vines and weeds. Glad you could help this owner.

[@MichelleNiemand-p1p]

Thank you for pulling weeds put by roots...

[@FredSomerlot]

Great job looks amazing, Im glad there are great people in this world. Thanks for taking care of your community. America needs more people like you.

[@sandrabeltran3261]

Great job helping others

[@haroldmartin4547]

Well done sir, thank you for helping this lady.👍👍👍

[@jeremy1350]

Hi Brian. You did a very good thing for our lady. Our thoughts prayers go out to her, in her time of need. She's not alone. And you helped her out a lot. I guess I am really glad there wasn't a pool inside that back enclosure. Made me breathe a little bit easier. One Less thing for her to worry about, right ?? Well Done !!

[@hana518]

Beautifully done 👍

[@shqa574]

A job well done, Biglin. The owner should calculate the total cost of mowing every three months, average it over twelve months, and add the cost to the monthly rental rate. She can pay a lawncare company for service every three months, which would be better than the renter never mowing the lawn, and getting a notice from the City. The renter took the lawnmower in order to sell it. I doubt they would bother to use it at their next home address. The City does not collect fines from the city owned property, but they can collect them from a private owner. Fines are their revenue generator.

[@normadavidson-mm3ux]

The City should still be required to mow their lots. If not, the cost of mowing the City lot should be deducted from the City budget and donated to the . Local homeless shelter. That would get the City administration of their butts and get the city cleaned up. 10 days GET IT DONE!

[@deannastout8349]

Wow great job You did on this property nice work Looks beautiful 😊😁👍💜

[@PhyllisGentry-b8n]

Fantastic job on removing branches and limbs from roof! Governments always hit people with violations but don't take care of their own property. "Do as I say, not as I do." God bless you for helping this gal out! Be safe!

[@donnadunn8128]

Thank you for helping this homeowner with that mess of a yard!🙂

[@brendalonergan5111]

Wonderful! Im so glad you got rid of the ivy! Now it would be awesome if someone with a pressure washer would pressure wash the house siding 😊

[@DebraFou-jr1vc]

Beautiful job. It looks like a brand new house. So glad there are people like you willing to help.

[@poohswop]

Thank you for helping this lady. She is already ill. What a relief for her. Bless you! The city needs to do their part now.

I hope they left the inside better than they did the outside, what a shame,…thank goodness you’re doing all this beautiful work for her. I’m watching from Canada.

[@jimmyg5687]

Great job God will bless you

[@bettytaylor7269]

Wow, you went above and beyond when you got on the roof and trimmed those branches. Great job.

[@BurtW546]

People please take them water out if you can.

[@pupndan1982]

I really appreciated you climbed on the roof and trimmed the trees! Not many would do that!

Never have i seen another lawn care person pull the weeds and Volunteer trees! Great work

[@jenniferscurry3407]

Very nice. ❤Thank you for being so kind and professional. 😊

[@teetop5776]

The renters stole the lawnmower 🤦 I hope them nothing but hardship in life. You did an awesome job 👍

[@dennydenny-er4pj]

I had a similar situation with a field owned by the city that had weed well over 5 foot that were spreading seeds into my flower gardens and rocks landscaping. Tried to contact city. They could care less. So i moved up the chain to my City Council person. DONE DEAL👍 been mowed and cleaned ever since. Try city council. Nice that you trimmed those trees. Perfect. Thank you for helping her and the others. Your very kind.

[@katarinawidyawati811]

I think there are still a lot of bushes, I suggest you be more careful when cleaning the yard so that the distance between cutting the grass is longer. Thank you for being kind enough to help him, God bless you ❤❤❤

Nice job. Be blessed and stay safe ❤️🙏🏽

Awesome job. You'll get this out of the ballpark. Keep up the good work.

[@cleopatracatra2097]

What a great job! Crisp edging and I love watching vines being pulled out 🙂 Too bad about her lawnmower as well and best wishes to her!

[@moredisney4me82]

Very nice work! In our area, the piece of land between your sidewalk and curb is the road verge, also called the curb or nature strip. It is owned by the township but must be maintained by the homeowner. The township can plant trees in that area. The homeowner, however, is not allowed to do anything to those trees. They're supposed to be maintained by the township. The township rarely, if ever, does anything to those trees. Unpruned lower branches block signs like stop and speed limit. The lower branches often hit pedestrians walking and children riding bikes. The curb trees are often planted directly under power lines. Since the trees are not maintained, they grow around the power lines and often cause outages during storms. Occasionally the trees will be cut into grotesque v-shapes around the power lines. Complaining rarely helps. It's very bizarre.

[@charlottejackson9537]

Really enjoyed watching how you all be helping people's that can help them to care for their yards thanks for what you do God bless you 🎉❤

[@JoseMartinez-q4d6k]

God bless you and your family for what you do to people in need. That transformation is one of the best I seen. Majestic!!!!!

[@R-Texas]

Great job! I know this woman appreciates the work you put into her yard. She has that concern behind her, now she can put her energy into healing. You are a good person to help those in need! Your help and work ethic is amazing!

[@RENEEGRECO]

The property looks wonderful! Thank you for blessing this well deserving woman! Now she should take that violation and place it on property next door!😂

[@sharonalexander9157]

What a transformation! Looks great!

[@kathyharrelson1981]

Great job I am glad to see you are mowing the backyard to alot of the yard people only mow the front

[@CleanUp09]

Cleaning is not only about cleaning your living space, but also about making your spirit more comfortable and relaxed. Every time you complete a cleaning job, you are bringing neatness and freshness to the surrounding space and yourself. Remember, every small action, every step of cleaning contributes to making a big difference. Your perseverance and sense of responsibility are the motivation to keep your living environment clean and beautiful. You are doing very well, keep it up!

[@LeckGuyton]

OMG your back. I truly love your work and always waiting til the next time you'll be on.

[@kittyhawk7060]

I subscribe to people who help others at no cost. Place looked great when you finished. Why can't neighbors see when people need help and offer a hand? I'm 80 and I still help my neighbors when they need it and they help when I need it.

[@zuraidahnasir2203]

I like the way you work. No talking just get on. Very nice and fantastic finished ❤ good work ! Your good deed is very well appreciated. God blessed 🙏

Nice to see this makeover was done all for the right reasons, you know she will attempt to maintain it now it's manageable, I know how difficult it can be (lost both my legs and a dialysis patient). Well done another amazing job 👏

[@amyhughes4214]

Thank you for taking such good care of her property. Cancer is stressful enough, she didn’t need that extra worry.

[@smedina146]

Greetings Bryan from the great Pacific Northwest, Lakewood Washington! I stumbled upon your channel and am so glad I did! I loved your transformation and look forward to seeing several more of them.

You’re an angel and what a hard worker ! I hope you’re keeping hydrated👍😇

[@lindathompson3982]

What a thorough & thoughtful job! Thank you for your showing this neighbor loving kindness in a time of need. Yes, I'd say this is a real help to her...We always wish, in situations such as her need here, that her extended famiy members or church-family members would work together for her ( both practical & spiritual) good and volunteer their time and effort to look after this situation. Being that she may have no family of either type, I am thankful for the desire of this man to be the answer to her in this situation. THANK YOU ..❤😊

What annoys me is, next door have a nice lawn and there may be a metre or more as in this one next to there’s and they don’t mow it, if it was me I’d mow it, would only take a minute.

[@PatriciaStambaugh]

Seems like people just don't care now days what they do it's like it's owed them I just don't get it even neighbors won't help you even if they now your sick and no family they won't even ask it's not like it use to be every one keeps to themselves but that's not to say there is a few like you that still is out there helping thanks alot and everything looks really great😂😂❤

Looks great, l'm pleased you pulled the tall weeds out instead of cutting them back. It looked a different house especially with the sun out. Its a shame about the eye sore next door.

[@marlakulczyk975]

I don’t know if you have anything like this where you are, but we have one of our local TV stations that loves to hear these kinds of stories and make a difference for people in need! They would love to report on the fact that that lot next-door is owned by the city and is in worst condition than the one they’re trying to find her for. Good luck and 🙏🏻 for return to good health.

[@karlathrift550]

First time watching your video, what a wonderful job you did.
