University City RenterParticipant
It’s just a regular apartment, as far as I know they have never been condos. One thing that is against us is probably 90 % of the tenants are college students and Mom and Dad are paying the rent or their just taking out student loans to pay for living expenses and not worrying about it. Most don’t care what the rent is, so they just pay whatever is asked and they don’t care about the apartment or surroundings.
I can’t believe some of the stuff the management tries to pull. One time they put fliers on everyone’s door strongly suggesting everyone mail in you rent to this office in N. County instead of in the drop box at the office. They did this about 10 times, so fine I started mailing our rent in. About 6 months later, I get a letter telling me my rent was late and had to pay a $50 fine. I’ve never been late before, and I always sent it in 6-7 days before the 1st. I went to the office and essentially said, “How do I know your not lying?” Think about it, randomly choose 10 people = additional $500/month profit and there is no way to prove if they did or didn’t get it on time.

University City RenterParticipantSorry to hear Marion, it takes 2 people to have a happy marriage but only 1 to ruin it. Of course there are exceptions but IMO it seems that when men go through a divorce they just want it to be over with and often agree to give the woman more than what is ‘fair’. Some of them regret it after a few years, I’ve seen this many times. Also I’ve seen many times where the woman does not really care at all to take everything they guy has and leave him for dead. Generally men won’t do that contrary to what is perceived on TV, especially if kids are involved.

University City RenterParticipantI think prices will continue to go up. Alternative energy sources for cars will take time, until then most people have no convenient alternative, and the oil companies know that. You have to remember that a large % of Americans live in rural areas or areas where public transportation is either nonexistent or extremely inconvenient. I’m lucky enough to live close enough to ride a road bike to work year round and the wife drives a Saturn only about 5 miles to work.
The pollution in China IS TERRIBLE, I’ve had to go there many times (Guangzhou, it’s near Hong Kong). You go outside for just a few hours, come back and take a shower, blow your nose and the tissue is all black.
