In older neighborhoods, more upkeep is needed. It takes a houseproud owner to do everything to maintain a home.. Standards can only do so much, i.e. cut the grass etc.
Owned by a bank is it's own can of worms. You don't see much of it, but if it is on your street....it must be very disappointing and particularly if you are trying to sell your home.
When we were selling ours in Cincy, I snuck up the street and mowed a lawn of a home that was in short sale.
