The man at the beginning said they've been sitting this way since 1996, nearly 30 years. They were very well built to still be standing, but I doubt a resto would be cost effective to even begin to be safe. Edit: It was once someone's pride and joy and holds a lot of happy memories for a family somewhere. I'm sorry the light has left it because it really is a beautiful house.

There should be some law that requires a tear down if the house is in such a state. And if the owners cannot afford it, the land should be appropriated back to the municipality.

It is tragic, as they were undoubtedly lovely at their best.

If any of those issues exist, these houses would be bottomless money pits to attempt to restore.

I live in Midwest farming country. It makes me sad to see old barns that are falling into ruins. Several generations ago that barn was some family’s pride and joy. They probably worked for years to earn enough money to build that large building. It takes a lot of money to maintain a barn. If it no longer has a function or purpose most families wouldn’t have that kind of money. I understand it is a passing way of life but it makes me sad.

It's also amazing to me, in such a beautiful neighborhood , why the city just lets property sit there until it finally collapses onto itself. It probably was a really nice house at one time, and yet there it sits, a neighborhood eyesore for years and years. It's a total eyesore, it devalues the other properties on the street and is going to end up a dumping ground, or infested with critters. What's the point? If a city can issue a citation for grass, surely they should have some control over how long properties sit as vacant eyesores. It's really such a shame.

Beautiful job! And now I'm going to ask a rhetorical question: If the man's mom has lived there for roughly 28 years, did it never occur to him (or any of the other neighbors for that matter) to take on the project of basic yard mowing, if nothing else, for the sake of the neighborhood? I never fail to wonder about that when you come across a property like this. On the other hand, if they did, we wouldn't get to see you do these marvelous recovery/reveal projects.

If those two houses were in the UK the land would have been taken over by the Council or a housing association, the two derelict houses demolished and several blocks of flats build in their place!! 😅 I'm sure they were lovely homes back when they were first built, and they are in a nice area (you can tell by the way the neighbours look after their own gardens), and I agree with the others that they look so much better now that they look as if somebody has cared about them and given them a bit of TLC. It makes the neighbours feel better, you feel better, and us viewers feel better, to see the transformation!! [Still loving the way you disappear off one way and then suddenly appear from the opposite direction, as if by magic!! 😆]

@@DianeNichols-u1b Large parts of the roof are gone, exposing the interior to the weather, water and wildlife. The walls are sinking onto the footing/foundation. All of the exterior wood has been untreated for so long it is likely more dry rot than solid. Termites and carpenter ants are likely. And then there is the possibility of human-caused interior and structural damage. - While last week's house MIGHT be salvageable, I strongly suspect this week's house is a full tear-down.

Videos of people squishing and popping things can be so mesmerizing, but I prefer your mesmerizing videos because you are doing what I consider to be God's work. And everything is so satisfyingly beautiful and a sense of healing for the property and neighbors is just wonderful. I'm so glad that KZbin suggested your videos and, now, other people like you too. I am also inspired to do extra work in my yard and grateful for the lessons in proper tools and techniques. I watch/listen to you at work and am happy that the sound of weed whackers, edge trimmers, scrapping and blowers are more soothing now versus annoying. Thank you and may God bless you, your family and your mission to help the world on yard at a time. And may God keep your body strong and healthy.

I like how the standing big mower lets you see where you are going in order to mow more precisely, and you seem to be able to do the reverse passes quicker I try to do circle, square, or rectangle patterns (depending on the area) to save gas and time over switching from forward to reverse on my JD tractor. My father and I don't care about the "lines". In my case, I would still use my sitting tractor over the standing one you use because my feet get extremely fatigued.
