@SBMowing No disrespect intended SB but if you want people to stay to the very end, do you really need three minutes of before and after video, when one would do.
Spencer, I have asked you this so many times, and now I'm telling you: WEAR A MASK. You're young and healthy. Don't jeopardise your youthful health by continuing to work unprotected. Dust and plant spores will colonise your lungs and lead to pulmonary damage that will not only shorten your life but adversely affect the quality of your life. You're a wonderful young man, doing splendid work. Please, PLEASE, wear a mask when you're working. Stay safe. Stay healthy.
YES! 💯 We lost a friend to lung cancer WAY too soon. If not for yourself, please do it for your bride and little ones you may be blessed with in the future.
@@WalMartScrewedMe “I haven’t had problems with not wearing a mask while doing yard work, therefore I, a single person, has more of a say in this than all the millions of people who have gotten affected by this stuff throughout all the years of humanity” - you
I just got home from work and sat down to decompress and a newscast from World News Now was on my Facebook page. The article was about you and the kindness you did for the cat you found. I have watched you a few times on UA-cam and thought " How kind is Spencer for what he does". But now I know you must be an ANGEL sent here to not only help your fellow man but also our four legged friends as well!! I watched that article with tears in my eyes and promptly came over to UA-cam to subscribe to your channel! Keep up the wonderful work you do! You have gained a new follower and fan here! GOD BLESS you
Working by a busy road you really need to get a safety vest. Get one with your logo on it. You need to keep yourself safe, so we can continue to watch your amazing yard transformations. What a jungle of a yard, and what a transformation to be one of the better yard in the neighborhood. Great job on it.
I’ve just been reading through some of the comments….. a few things 1. If you don’t like what Spencer does, don’t watch 2. Spencer does this all for free, so he does as much as he can in a day. 3. Most of the time, Spencer tides up the empty lots, not for the landlords. But for the community. 4. Agreed that you should wear a safety vest, especially on busy roads. And lastly, I love my Fridays! I get to wind down just before bed(as I am in the UK) watching the transformations of kind Spencer’s work. Thanks ❤❤
Agree. Spencer should wear a safety vest and a mask to filter out all the dirt and plant dust . Can you imagine what it does to his lungs? We care for you, Spencer!
@@valsblueforrest2961 I also tried wearing a mask and a dust mask, but to be honest, it was quite uncomfortable because I sweated a lot in the hot sun. The gardens Spencer cleans appear to be dusty, but the weather there is cooler than here."
Agree,, Spencer you should absolutely get a top of the line respirator and eye protection and wear it 100% of the time. Mold, fungus, bacteria, chemicals, fertilizers, just plain dust, wood fiber and poison plant particles all can cause very bad outcomes for your lungs. Find protections that are cool and comfortable to wear. My brother is a well regarded doctor. You might not notice it now, but in 10-20 years it will be an issue. Please also wear the protective vest as nails, rocks and more can really cause injury when they shoot out while mowing and edging. Finally I garden six days a week in my own yard. My Doctor gives me a Tetanus shot every 8 years instead of every 10 years just to be careful. Love to watch a pigs ears turn into a silk purse as my Dad used to say when finished a redo of a wreak of a house.
It's easiest to tell those who have some objections to Spencer's work, not to watch it if they don't like it. And he doesn't do anything for free. Each of these videos he charges well from Yt. If I'm not mistaken. As far as I can see, the criticism did not bear fruit since he made another video in which he did not rake the lawn. I advised him to rake the lawn. I won't follow him anymore. I followed him a little while ago, and now I stopped by to write something useful. Unlike all of you who only praise him.
I always hope that somehow the property owner will be motivated to sell or rent - so the house can be a happy place, a home. Spencer Unearths the potential - thank you, Spencer
Someone loved this home at some point. That pretty curved awning is so lovely. I’m always left wondering what the place looked like new and about the excited new home owners. Thank you for the work you do. Appreciate you.
I really enjoy watching your videos. I don’t fully understand why but they help me to relax and unplug from all of the chaos going on around us right now.
Amazing how many of these cute little places are left abandoned and folks won't, don't, or can't take care of the yards. You are an amazing man to do this.
Al had a weed eater/trimmer stolen while he was moving the lawn. The thief was caught on camera. But I don't think he got it back. Be careful! You always make a great result. 👏👏👏👏👏⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️
They all get robbed. I also saw the video where Al Blades had his weed Wacker stolen. I also saw a guy named "Mr. 2620" get a Weed Whacker stolen, as well. I believe Sean Stockman (aka Midlife Stockman) had a shovel stolen from his truck. He politely said that he must have "misplaced it". And Kevin Hansen (lawncare juggernaut/boring channel) just announced the other day that he's had thousands of dollars equipment stolen. This was after a female was just fishing/snooping around his trailer.
It is amazing that none of the neighbors would at least mow the yard to help the neighborhood a little better. Especially on a main street. We had a empty house next to us when we were kids. My dad would have us mow it when we mowed our yard. It's amazing to see how bad and quickly a yard can go to crap. You do an outstanding service to all these neighborhoods. Cheers! 🍺🍺
How many kids these days mow their own family's lawn? LOL. However, I don't live in an older neighborhood where abandoned houses seem to be more common.
I used to cut around the mailboxes out here for years no thank you, they didn't even try to keep it clean .. after I broke the weedeater for it's last time I quit doing it .. took a year and a half for someone else to cut it .. think about going to the mailbox and find a rattlesnake hanging out in the tall grass underneath it 😮
Omg Spencer, idk how you can work in that heat let alone in long sleeve. Omg I'd be passing out. Please be careful and stay hydrated. And please don't pass out. Take breaks/rest. Be careful. Love your videos.
The tree in front of the porch is driving me crazy, but it looks like it would have needed some heavier equipment to take down. Regardless! Beautiful work yet again, and what a lot of work too! That house had to have been adorable once.
Live in this city/ town, please show these videos to your elected officials and then vote them out of office. SB Mowing, you are awesome, you do great work. 👍🏻
Can the citizens of this city afford to do yardwork for other people that don't do it, or would they rather have the city use their taxes on road or school maintenance?
Even better, publicize the property owners' names. It's public information! Local tax assessor has it, often easily available online. The property OWNER is the one accountable. Can't wait for government to solve all our problems.
Spencer, on a busy road such as this one, maybe you should set out some orange cones on the curb or grass just to catch drivers attention. Just a thought. Great job!!!
Good Morning Spencer! You certainly found a ‘doozey’ this time! Please be careful as you continue doing this amazing work that you do in cleaning up these neglected and often times forgotten properties! Thank you for all you do! Wishing you and Mrs SB a wonderful day!💕
❤ I'm 57 years old slightly disabled but got tired of my landlord not doing the trimming in the edging around our home and so 2 years ago my youngest son is 30 then bought me h a r t set of blower and trimmer edging after he came home and found me on my knees cutting the edging around my sidewalks with a pair of scissors so I can absolutely appreciate all of this and the Lord will have a special place for you in heaven
Good for you to take action. The satisfying feeling of knowing you beautified your dwelling. I did the same thing when renting. I even put flower seeds in the bed. It was worth it. Keep on :)
Spencer, you need to add a pole hedge trimmer to your toolset. This would allow you to nip back the poison ivy without spreading the oils. I use approach this successfully on a weekly basis.
@roseyrose9467 Spencer gave a weak effort on this property. Don't you wonder why he didn't cut the tree down right in front of the house? It's actually touching the house. Why didn't he trim the bush that's right in front of the house? And why would he leave that ugly overgrown tree that's right up against the front fence? he also could have cleaned up the side of the house more where there was no poison ivy. I think Spencer is now just in it for the money. He finds abandoned homes that are depressing to look at and he gives a 75% effort. I think I'm gonna have to unsubscribe soon unless Spencer improves.
@@thomasluby1754 I believe Spencer explained earlier in this video why he didn't attempt to take down the tree. BUT as you said you are unsubscribing so, BYE.
@@stimpyfranklin8052 You are incorrect, my intelligence challenged friend. Spencer said no such thing about that tree. The big question is why are you taking my criticism of Spencer so personally? That seems quite strange. I did not say Spencer was a bad person, just that he's getting a little sloppy in his work and I think he's more in it for the money these days as opposed to doing a good job.
Oh no Spencer I always wondered about your equipment especially when you’re parked far 😢. This yard looks so great though after the uplift you gave it. Have an awesome weekend everyone and you have a great weekend with Ms SB Spencer!
I'm impressed! Spencer, you've turned a yard that looked like a dump into a well maintained yard. I'm sure the entire community is thankful for the work you have done. I'm actually surprised that on your various jobs that you haven't had a lot of equipment stolen off of your truck. You are not always in the best of neighborhoods. I always worry about your cameras left unattended while you work, that someone would just walk up and steal your camera equipment. Be careful and stay safe! Great job...
I ALWAYS enjoy watching the transformation, from "ugly duckling to beautiful swan". Even though the city/township wasn't getting the job done. YOU always amaze me with the amount of time you put it. ❤. Great job SB
Hi Spencer, keep up the good work. Just wanted to let you know been watching you now for quite awhile, in fact your the very first yard guy I every watched or knew that did this kind of stuff. May God bless you with a strong & induring body for this kind of work for as long as you both see fit to do it.
Spencer, you truly are a remarkable person! I don’t know many people who enjoy yard work, but you, you do it for FREE, and seem to enjoy it. The transformations are amazing & I’m sure the neighbors are very happy that you do the this work. I am simply in awe of you!!! God bless you in abundance as you do this incredible work. ❤
I have to say I really enjoy the mowing but really appreciate the other part of the job that is really hard. If I was near I would volunteer to pull security for you, you deserve it. SJ May the Lord always be with you.
Spenser you are the most efficient lawn guy making these videos. You do more with 2 passes when you are edging or mowing than a lot of others do in 5 passes. That is why your videos are more relaxing to me than the others. The process maters more than the before and after shots to me.
I really enjoyed watching this! That’s a great mower you have. Sad that the house is empty. Should be filled with family. Thanks for cleaning it up! That helps keeping the community safer and nicer!🥰
Great job. It came out great. I agree no poison ivy 😊 and smart idea parking the truck in the driveway. Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a nice weekend
You do fine work and I can imagine the number of folks who pass by in the days following one of your transformations and the thoughts of appreciation and speculation. “Is someone finally moving in?” I am glad this house is boarded up with squatters on the rise.
Excellent honorable job as always. I was wondering if you could spray the poison ivy on the fence with something that would at least kill it so it’d be safer and easier to remove later on. And also keep it from getting bigger and spreading more.
I am always riveted when I see these videos it is really a Godsend because when you got hit by a car and are middle aged it feels really bad when you can't do the outdoor work that you used to be able to do. I started mowing lawns when I was 9 and I got some movement back enough that all I can do is mow with an electric but I cannot weed eat. Thank you for making a difference towards people whom are feeling bad about themself because they can't do all the yard work or afford to pay you. You are a true blessing dude THANK YOU for the vacant places too
I'm really surprised that you can find so many of these nasty yards. If no one really appreciates your work locally, the good Lord appreciates your hard labor.👍👍
Spencer, great job cleaning up this yard. I know the neighbors are happy you cleaned up this neighborhood eyesore. God bless you Spencer, God bless Mrs. SB, God bless your Family's
So sorry to hear that people are stealing from you when you are out helping your neighbors. A locking equipment truck would be nice but everything is so expensive. May you always be protected by angels as you do the good deeds you do.
Love those drone shots! So sad there are people out there who are so desperate they'll steal or harm others😢 Glad you figured a way to protect yourself & your equipment.
Absolutely brilliant transformation of a jungle. You fearlessly take on such extraordinary, difficult hard work. Thank you very much indeed for all you do ...🙏
Spencer you truly do an amazing transformation to every yard that you tackle. I follow several but yours is my favorite. Be safe in all that you do. I always look forward to Fridays to see your new accomplishments. God bless you and your family!
That is such a cute house-I love the vintage awnings and shingles plus it has a porch! It looked so sad until you worked your magic. Great job as always!
I’ve seen some companies here in Texas that uses box truck to take their equipment around. I thought it was a clever idea. I know they are $$$ but maybe if you invested in a used one maybe it would help. Just an idea. I love the work you do! Thanks for keeping yards clean!
Spencer what a beautiful job U did 2 get the house ready 4 possibly a new buyer n they could put the finishing touches on it 2 make it a home - Awesome Work 🥰👍
I just love Friday's with SB Mowing. You are like the nicest guy I know. I also watch Midwest Magic Cleaning with Mack and he always mentions you and owns your shirt as I do. Hoping you both get together on a video.
You just doubled the value of the real estate! That driveway, WOW. Tell the neighbors that their house is ten degrees cooler because of the increase in air movement. That is called a “breeze”, remember those?
Awesome job on this yard!! I'm sure the neighbors were very happy. Now that you can see the house maybe someone will buy it to help the neighborhood. Keep up the great work!!
Spencer, great work cleaning that property up. It makes me sad to see so many abandoned homes when there are so many homeless families all over the United States. It is such a waste to have these places empty and overgrown. May God Bless you and your family for all you do to help the community out.
Unfortunately this place is probably uninhabitable. If it’s been empty long enough for the yard to get 3 feet tall, it’s no doubt either been gutted right down to the interior doors and floor boards, or vandalized. Plus there’s probably all kinds of critters and poop in there. If it’s a nice enough lot, and someone did buy it. They’d probably bulldoze it.
That looks so much better! I appreciate so much that you do these abandoned houses. I live on a really pretty street and everyone takes care of their property except for the house right across the street from me of course. It once was a beautiful home.
WOW Spencer, that yard was a lot bigger then I expected! What a difference you make in the neighborhoods, but don’t put yourself in danger. If you feel the hair on your neck standing up it’s time to change your plans. Loved the kitty shelter too!❤❤❤
Superb job! What a difference! I see these sweet abandoned houses and think how someone used to live and love there, puttering around their yard. I always wonder what happened. Anyway, kudos Spencer @
Nice work! I’m new to your channel and watched some of your videos. I hope your work will help getting these vacant homes to a new owner who can take care of them. Keep it going!
I can relate: our street is just "main" enough to have a lot of traffic but just "side" enough to be residential, and zero clearance to do any real edging at the street. Be safe, dear.
How can so many abandoned homes stand empty for years while there is so much homelessness and poverty? Good job for making it look respectable anyway, Spencer!
Probate. It’s expensive and not a fast process. Avoid at all costs by planning ahead and doing all your legal paperwork while still healthy. In some places, it doesn’t require an attorney to file the paperwork.
Or other legal troubles. Disability leads to nursing home, costs eat up savings, house lost due to taxes or foreclosure. Many other circumstances can lead to this.
Vacant homes are usually foreclosures. Banks are notorious for wanting high dollar for homes that need tons of money to return to good shape. Plus interest rates are so high.
With 32 years experience I can promise you it was an FHA repo. They take forever to get put back on the market and then only by auction. Generally only Tealtors that spe iLize in them or VA are detailed enough to know when the au tions come up. Thus o e appears to me to be one that fell thro the cracks of the lender that repod it. I've bought 2 that the lender didn't even k ow they owned. Their execs were stunned and basically wanted then gone with a capital G. Wow. Good deals. Damn dumb realtors drive by that everyday and don't put in hard work to track down a way to buy it as it was pe nies on the dollar. Another reason I was a licensed pro for 32 years and a Realtor for about 5. The way it is now I'd love @sbmowing to follow up and see how long it takes to sell. Bet it's less than 90 days. If I still had clients that wanted to set up a portfolio...and the company was in a decent rental town I think I'd just follow them around!

Hi Spencer, keep up the good work. Just wanted to let you know been watching you now for quite awhile, in fact your the very first yard guy I every watched or knew that did this kind of stuff. May God bless you with a strong & induring body for this kind of work for as long as you both see fit to do it.
Spencer, you truly are a remarkable person! I don’t know many people who enjoy yard work, but you, you do it for FREE, and seem to enjoy it. The transformations are amazing & I’m sure the neighbors are very happy that you do the this work. I am simply in awe of you!!! God bless you in abundance as you do this incredible work. ❤
That has been an adorable house. The neighbors must have been thrilled! What a job!
I have to say I really enjoy the mowing but really appreciate the other part of the job that is really hard. If I was near I would volunteer to pull security for you, you deserve it. SJ May the Lord always be with you.
Spenser you are the most efficient lawn guy making these videos. You do more with 2 passes when you are edging or mowing than a lot of others do in 5 passes. That is why your videos are more relaxing to me than the others. The process maters more than the before and after shots to me.
Such a nice looking house. Makes a person wonder why it was empty.
Good day everyone, I enjoyed watching your videos 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I really enjoyed watching this! That’s a great mower you have. Sad that the house is empty. Should be filled with family. Thanks for cleaning it up! That helps keeping the community safer and nicer!🥰
Thank you for all your hard work helping others in need. May God bless you and your family.
That looks so much better. It really sad to see all of those houses empty. You did a really good job once again. Keep up the good work
Great job. It came out great. I agree no poison ivy 😊 and smart idea parking the truck in the driveway. Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a nice weekend
You’re the before and after King, Spencer. Thank you!!!
Another great transformation. You and Mrs. SB have a good and safe weekend.
It's just crazy how many houses you find that are abandoned !!!
You do fine work and I can imagine the number of folks who pass by in the days following one of your transformations and the thoughts of appreciation and speculation. “Is someone finally moving in?” I am glad this house is boarded up with squatters on the rise.
Excellent honorable job as always. I was wondering if you could spray the poison ivy on the fence with something that would at least kill it so it’d be safer and easier to remove later on. And also keep it from getting bigger and spreading more.
Your channel just makes me happy!
I am always riveted when I see these videos it is really a Godsend because when you got hit by a car and are middle aged it feels really bad when you can't do the outdoor work that you used to be able to do. I started mowing lawns when I was 9 and I got some movement back enough that all I can do is mow with an electric but I cannot weed eat. Thank you for making a difference towards people whom are feeling bad about themself because they can't do all the yard work or afford to pay you. You are a true blessing dude THANK YOU for the vacant places too
Great job Spencer 💪👏👏 greetings from France 🇫🇷 ❤
The neighbors will be confused when they'll see everything is cleaned up but no one lives there/moved there. Good job as always !
I'm really surprised that you can find so many of these nasty yards. If no one really appreciates your work locally, the good Lord appreciates your hard labor.👍👍
Your mower is a beast!!
Spencer, great job cleaning up this yard. I know the neighbors are happy you cleaned up this neighborhood eyesore. God bless you Spencer, God bless Mrs. SB, God bless your Family's
So sorry to hear that people are stealing from you when you are out helping your neighbors. A locking equipment truck would be nice but everything is so expensive. May you always be protected by angels as you do the good deeds you do.
Maybe get a dog or carry. I know some guys here carry while they are mowing.
Great job! Thank u for giving ur time to benefit & help an area ❤😊
This would cost anything from $300-$600 in Melbourne Australia 😮😮😮
Have you tried to use Safety Cones while cleaning the edge of the busy streets? You may be surprised, they do work... 😊
Good idea!
Excellent job. Well done Spencer!
looks great Spencer!

Love those drone shots! So sad there are people out there who are so desperate they'll steal or harm others😢 Glad you figured a way to protect yourself & your equipment.
Not every thief is desperate. They are just a thief!
Absolutely brilliant transformation of a jungle.
You fearlessly take on such extraordinary, difficult hard work.
Thank you very much indeed for all you do ...🙏
Spencer you truly do an amazing transformation to every yard that you tackle. I follow several but yours is my favorite. Be safe in all that you do. I always look forward to Fridays to see your new accomplishments. God bless you and your family!

That is such a cute house-I love the vintage awnings and shingles plus it has a porch! It looked so sad until you worked your magic. Great job as always!
I’ve seen some companies here in Texas that uses box truck to take their equipment around. I thought it was a clever idea. I know they are $$$ but maybe if you invested in a used one maybe it would help. Just an idea.
I love the work you do! Thanks for keeping yards clean!
Spencer what a beautiful job U did 2 get the house ready 4 possibly a new buyer n they could put the finishing touches on it 2 make it a home - Awesome Work 🥰👍
I just love Friday's with SB Mowing. You are like the nicest guy I know. I also watch Midwest Magic Cleaning with Mack and he always mentions you and owns your shirt as I do. Hoping you both get together on a video.
Everytime I'm watching your videos & a phone call interrupts me when I go back your video is gone & I have to watch it all over again 😔
Why not just pause the video when your phone rings? Then go back and watch. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the front porch. And the back yard as well. Great job
Please Stay Safe! Risking Your Life Is Definitely Not Woth It! But Thank You Soo Much For Being Willing 2 Help Wherever You Can! ..God Bless You!😊❤
I look forward to weekly. Thank you for charity work.
You just doubled the value of the real estate! That driveway, WOW. Tell the neighbors that their house is ten degrees cooler because of the increase in air movement. That is called a “breeze”, remember those?
Looking good 👍
Well done, but your safety comes first. Be careful out there.
Good one to get cleaned up. You stay safe
Great job Spencer.
Happy Friday Spencer. Be Blessed and stay safe ❤️🙏🏽
Awesome job on this yard!! I'm sure the neighbors were very happy. Now that you can see the house maybe someone will buy it to help the neighborhood. Keep up the great work!!
Spencer, great work cleaning that property up. It makes me sad to see so many abandoned homes when there are so many homeless families all over the United States. It is such a waste to have these places empty and overgrown. May God Bless you and your family for all you do to help the community out.
Many homeless can not take care of a house thus they are homeless.
Unfortunately this place is probably uninhabitable. If it’s been empty long enough for the yard to get 3 feet tall, it’s no doubt either been gutted right down to the interior doors and floor boards, or vandalized. Plus there’s probably all kinds of critters and poop in there. If it’s a nice enough lot, and someone did buy it. They’d probably bulldoze it.
Absolutely beautiful! Good job, Spencer!
That looks so much better! I appreciate so much that you do these abandoned houses. I live on a really pretty street and everyone takes care of their property except for the house right across the street from me of course. It once was a beautiful home.
I really enjoy watching your videos.Thank you for all you do. ❤❤
WOW Spencer, that yard was a lot bigger then I expected! What a difference you make in the neighborhoods, but don’t put yourself in danger. If you feel the hair on your neck standing up it’s time to change your plans. Loved the kitty shelter too!❤❤❤
AWWW I've just seen the news about the cat you rescued, I love that. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you you are a blessing great job looks beautiful
One of your better transformation efforts. Be safe👍👍👍
Superb job! What a difference! I see these sweet abandoned houses and think how someone used to live and love there, puttering around their yard. I always wonder what happened. Anyway, kudos Spencer @
Thank you for all your hard work; it truly is a ministry to help the less advantaged folks the way you do!❤
Great job Spencer it looks 💯 percent better.😊
Nice work! I’m new to your channel and watched some of your videos. I hope your work will help getting these vacant homes to a new owner who can take care of them.
Keep it going!
Well done, as usual. Keep doing the good work. I think it’s ok to take the precautions you think are necessary. God bless you.
*"I'm sexy and I mow it."* - Great merch. 😂😎🤣😎
You did a perfect job 👍👍👍👍👍🤗😁💜💜💜
I can relate: our street is just "main" enough to have a lot of traffic but just "side" enough to be residential, and zero clearance to do any real edging at the street. Be safe, dear.
Safety first kevin got things stolen from his truck amazing work
So good to see you again hope you and Mrs SB did having a good week😊😊😊❤❤
How can so many abandoned homes stand empty for years while there is so much homelessness and poverty? Good job for making it look respectable anyway, Spencer!
Probate. It’s expensive and not a fast process. Avoid at all costs by planning ahead and doing all your legal paperwork while still healthy. In some places, it doesn’t require an attorney to file the paperwork.
Or other legal troubles. Disability leads to nursing home, costs eat up savings, house lost due to taxes or foreclosure. Many other circumstances can lead to this.
Vacant homes are usually foreclosures. Banks are notorious for wanting high dollar for homes that need tons of money to return to good shape. Plus interest rates are so high.
With 32 years experience I can promise you it was an FHA repo. They take forever to get put back on the market and then only by auction. Generally only Tealtors that spe iLize in them or VA are detailed enough to know when the au tions come up. Thus o e appears to me to be one that fell thro the cracks of the lender that repod it. I've bought 2 that the lender didn't even k ow they owned. Their execs were stunned and basically wanted then gone with a capital G. Wow. Good deals. Damn dumb realtors drive by that everyday and don't put in hard work to track down a way to buy it as it was pe nies on the dollar. Another reason I was a licensed pro for 32 years and a Realtor for about 5. The way it is now I'd love @sbmowing to follow up and see how long it takes to sell. Bet it's less than 90 days. If I still had clients that wanted to set up a portfolio...and the company was in a decent rental town I think I'd just follow them around!
