With over 2 millions subscribers and people often watch his entire videos his view time has gotta be insane. Trust me. I'm not very big but I've been making content for over 8 years. My guess is he makes easily 2-3 million a year (could be a lot more) between both this channel and his Power Washing one. Also, he has no employees, he edits his own videos. To run a lawncare business that would generate this much income he would have to hire employees and that means insurance and a lot less total income for him. He never tells the people he wants to do this for free because the video will generate thousands of dollars because it looks bad on him I guess. Spenser is a great guy for doing this and he absolutely deserves to make every dime he earns doing this but don't be fooled because he makes a fortune on UA-cam.

Absolutely ridiculous. They would rather have their property value go down than take a little of their own time and gas to do it.

      I would be surprised if the city bought it. Cities aren’t in the business of owning properties. What typically happens is the owners stop paying property taxes. After at least five years of unpaid taxes, the property goes on a sheriff’s sale. If no one bids on it, then it automatically reverts to the county. Likely the county has totally forgotten that they own it.

Even after they had tried to keep them down. One farmer got mad and sent the county notices to clean their ditches because they were causing the problems to get worse by not mowing.

    Have you ever thought about doing a video going back to an abandoned property you done back in the day to see how it's holding up now? I think that would be interesting to watch. I've always wondered how those properties look after a couple of years.

      This house is no longer a revenue source for city. The city is setup to collect local taxes and levy fines against local home owners and spend the money on whatever they think is important. There is zero incentive for the city to do anything with this property. No money left here.

    Have just recently discovered SB Mowing. In all the episodes I have watched not once has a homeowner ever offered Spencer a cold drink, hot drink or even a cookie or two. When he has spoken with a neighbour of an abandoned house not once have I seen the neighbour offer Spencer anything. Have people in your country forgotten how to show kindness, generosity and gratitude? I find it quite disturbing.

      My Mum, a wee Scottish granny used to make sandwiches, tea,coffee or soup depending on the time of year for any workmen in the street. A few years ago we were having some major work done on our house in November, we had to move out of the house, and there was my Mum making food and drinks for all the “workies” each day, sadly you don’t see much of that happening these days. She was totally awesome! I asked her why she did that, her reply was It’s nice to be nice . Miss her everyday ❤

    Sadly it's so typical of a town ,county or village to do just what they've done. The neighbors on the block should get together and sue the city for neglence in a class action law suit for devaluing their properties. Everyone wants to complain but no one wants to take action. A yard like this brings drugs, squatters, rats, mice and snakes to the neighborhood.
