They often sell for a little less than the new price but the market here is a little unusual right now. 

You'd probably have better luck driving for dollars if a house was unkempt in Murrieta or Temecula than you would in Perris or Hemet, the idea is to find unusually unkempt yards. 

I was on vacation I sent a plumber to fix it and when he got there he said that was unusual.

Assuming you don't need a roof or A/C, spendings $2400 in a year is unusual.

When my friend asked his PM he said he went into each unit to inspect the conditions which includes turning on faucets and flushing the toilets so yes some times he would use the facilities.Is this unusual? 

The business model here is to a) not ask a lot of questions about what you're insuring, which allows you to b) have the cheapest insurance, followed by c) honor an unusually low percentage of claims , leading to d) eventually your ability to issue new policies suspended by the state [but people can renew existing policies] and e) make a crap ton of money in the process, followed by f) that carrier declares bankruptcy, but it's ok because g) you and your buddies with all that profit from the now-bankrupt firm go start a new insurance carrier, and of course h) rinse and repeat.

He had verbally agreed to get caught up on rent last week - but I had not heard from him in over a week and he stopped responding to my messages - so half of me got worried that something bad had happened to him (because this behavior was unusual), and half of me was pissed (if he was avoiding me on purpose).Without going into too much detail (for now; I can add details later), the current situation is supposedly (based on what his fiancé told me) that he got into a car accident a week and has been in a hospital in a coma. 

It's fairly unusual for property management companies to achieve such a high rating.

But just make your payments and it would be very unusual for anything to come up.

Suddenly confidence gaps and blindspots loom larger than rational data analysis.It’s natural to feel uncertain when navigating uncharted waters.
