Lease terms
The large print: - Looking for one housemate only. - No smoking in the condo. Responsible alcohol consumption is OK - No large pets. I'd prefer no animals, but small pets will be considered on a case by case basis. - No shoes on within the unit. Cleanliness especially in shared spaces matters a lot to me. - There is 1 garage space that can be yours for another $100 a month. On street parking does not require permits and is typically easy to find around the block. - Monthly rent is $1,500. Utilities (electric, + internet) will be shared and are typically ~$70/pp - Ideally, I would love to have someone commit to 3-6 months, but am open to anything less than a year.
