when buying a distressed property
there's a good chance you're going to
get a yard that looks like this where
the grass is extremely high that hasn't
been cut a long time you can't just come
in with a lawnmower and expect to mow
this stuff down it takes a technique you
don't want to start with anything less
than a weed eater get a good strong weed
eater and I'm going to show you how to
use that you might be tempted to go to
Home Depot or somewhere in rent a bush
hog and thinking the bush hog will take
it out it'll just knock it down it's
going to be a lot of work this is the
best way to do it let me show you you
want to come in with a flat motion
biting off about three or four inches as
you move to the right and then as you
come back to the left you're going to
sweep it with at an angle like this and
push your grass out of the way and then
take another bite let me show you
[Music]
and that's how you do it let me show you
what I've done in the front yard and the
front yard is done I know there's a lot
of work but I tell you if you hired
somebody to do something like that I've
paid eight hundred nine hundred dollars
for somebody to cut a yard with that
high of a grass and okay check this out
