MCDONALD, Judge.
The City of Dubuque pursues this appeal from an order denying its petition to obtain title to four pieces of real property claimed to be abandoned within the meaning of Iowa Code section 657A.10A (2016). On appeal, the city challenges the district courts findings of fact, application of fact to law, and ultimate conclusion the city failed to prove the parcels were abandoned within the meaning of the case. Our review is de novo. See Iowa Code § 657A.10A(1) ; Iowa R. App. P. 6.907 ( ); City of Council Bluffs v. Harder , No. 08-1315, 2009 WL 3775116, at *2 (Iowa Ct. App. Nov. 12, 2009). We are not bound by the district courts factual findings, but we give them weight, especially when considering the credibility of witnesses. See Iowa R. App. P. 6.904(3)(g). On de novo review, balancing all of the relevant statutory factors, like the district court, we conclude the city failed to prove the property was abandoned within the meaning of the Code. We affirm the judgment of the district court without further opinion. See Iowa Ct. R. 21.26 (a), (d).
AFFIRMED.
