Rules

As of June 27, 2025


Communal Living
The living arrangement is communal. As such, at all times Tenant shall be considerate of others in the community.

Clean Up After Yourself
Clean up after yourself. The house is as clean as the dirtiest person. Cleaning shall be performed with the lights on.
The Swiffer® SweeperVac, Swiffer® WetJet®, and Swiffer supplies are located in the laundry room. There is a vacuum cleaner located in the upstairs hall closet. There are various cleaning supplies under the kitchen sink.

Shoes/Foot Coverings
Do not wear shoes or any other foot covering that is worn outside in the house.

Close Doors with Grace

  1. Grasp the door handle. (Do not yet begin pulling/pushing.)
  2. Turn the handle so that the latch recedes COMPLETELY INTO THE DOOR.
  3. GRACEFULLY pull/push the door closed, finishing slowly so that it doesn't POUND against the frame.
  4. Slowly release the door handle

The curved side of the Latch should NEVER touch the Strike plate. See video below for demonstration.

Late Night Entry/Exit
Use the rear door between the hours of midnight and 5am.
If you normally park in the garage, then park on the driveway if you will make multiple trips between midnight and 5am.

Laundry Times
The washing machine and dryer shall only be initiated between the hours of 8am and 8pm EXCEPT THAT the dryer may be initiated past 8pm when:

Laundry
Laundry shall be stored in your Exclusive Premises while not in use. Those specific items of clothing that are pulled from the dryer during an active drying cycle shall be considered in use. Tenant shall only use an approriate measured amount of detergent. Clean the dryer lint screen after each load.

Kitchen Use

Cooking

Before, you start cooking, ensure you have all necessary cleaning items to properly cleanup afterwards.

Stovetop
DO NOT use a scrubbing pad on the cooktop (the area under the grates). Clean with hot and soapy water and a cloth, and then dry with a clean cloth. No sheen shall be left over. If you can make a smiley face with your finger on the cooktop ‐ then it is not clean. I can help you with this your first time through.

Pots & Pans
Take a reference picture of them before use. When you are finished cooking and have "cleaned" them, compare the pan to your picture. The two should look identical. ALL stains come out. "It won't come out" is not acceptable ‐ it can come out. I can help you with this your first time through.

This inside of the pots and pans is brushed stainless steel. The outside of the pots and pans is NOT brushed. Therefore:

If you cannot or choose not to properly clean the pots & pans, then you must acquire and use your own pots & pans.

Oils

Dish Washing
Dirty and/or clean flatware, tableware, dishware, cookware, and all other items used to consume and/or prepare food ("Dishware") shall not be stored in the sink and/or the drying mat adjacent to the sink. Only clean and damp Dishware shall be placed on the drying mat for drying. The drying mat should never be dirty if only items that are thoroughly washed are placed on it. A Dishware is considered "stored" in this rule when it is left on the drying mat or sink for at least three consecutive hours.

Use & Care of Premises
It is the responsibility of each Resident to treat and use all equipment and the Leased Premises as if it were his/her own. You, as the Resident, are responsible for all damages to the Leased Premises, fixtures, and appliances caused by lack of reasonable care by you or your guests.

Community Food
