This was the only house that flooded on the street and the city has since replaced the old drain with a new one.

As the owner of a plumbing company here in San Diego, I'm definitely more sensitive to asking for free advice from busy professionals while I'm still deciding if this market even makes sense.

Readers are advised to seek professional advice.

If it is the latter, the PM company should be professional about it.

Tenant agrees not to place into any drain lines of the Premises any non-approved substances, such as cooking grease,sanitary napkins, diapers, children’s toys or other similar object that may cause a stoppage.

We keep getting calls for stopped up sinks that are a result of grease or rice being allowed down the drains.

Your normal business practice, correspondence with your professionals, actual rental, compelling reasons for the change in intent, etc. 

It's very different from talking to independent RE professionals. 

I am here to learn as much as I can from everyone here at BP while also providing some insight through my academic and professional experience.

And be professional.
