    What I like about your cleanup videos is 1. you get rid of junk; 2. you rake up the cuttings, 3. your photography is excellent and from many angles, including a drone; 4. you spend money on 'extra touches' to improve the looks, and 5. you are dressed like Clark Kent to keep us from knowing that you are really Superman.

When a home goes to tax sale for delinquent taxes and no one bids on it and it has no mortgage it is transferred to the Land Bank. One year must transpire before it can be "sold" to a private person just in case the original owner wants to pay the taxes and reclaim the property.

    PEOPLE COMMENT THAT YOU DO A BAD JOB?!?!?!? There isn’t another UA-cam yard transformation channel other than Sean’s Australia counterpart, George over on ‘Quick Cuts’, who goes to the extra lengths to finish a job to their satisfaction. Not many will rake yard debris, fix fences, or even attempt to clean up public corner lots and sidewalks. You keep doing the Lord’s work Sean! “A generous person will be enriched, and the one who gives a drink of water will receive water” - Proverbs 11:25. Blessing others equips us to be blessed by our Father! God bless you and your ministry, Sean!

    You have become my favorite in lawn makeovers. For the simple fact that you go low and cut the volunteer trees that pop up in the middle of a bush. 99% of the others trim them at the top of the bush. And your trimming of bushes is just fine. Neglected bushes that you really have to trim back look bald in places but next spring they will begin to fill out. Thank you for your kindness toward others. Sadly it’s missing in the majority of this world.
