The email I received was strange as though the person was trying to ask me a trick question, so I looked him up.

Does anyone else think this is strange?

It sounds strange but investment properties foreclose at a higher rate than primary homes. 

That appeared strange. 

@Michael Bertsch You are a man and have no idea how frightening it would be to have a strange man in your yard...even if later turned out to be the landlord.

And it actually explained a comment I had heard from another agent who gave me a strangely high quote on a property, saying "Oh yeah, that's a tough zip code" - I think what he meant was "for my company".

That is strange and like others have mentioned, I would find another agent.  

@Andy Webb it is a strange area when it comes to rentals.

These are strange times in r/e and interesting. 

I see it happening in SF and Seattle, but what is happening in NYC is so strange....I see many houses on market for 200 days + and no one is buying them.
