• help in their school assignments

We require:
• a one month rent deposit (this is the damage deposit which will be returned to you when you move out if there is no damage to property)
• the monthly rent to be paid in advance on the first day of each month.
• one month notice if the student wants to move out
• be considerate in not wasting consumables (e.g., toiler paper), electricity, water, etc. Just because it's free for you doesn't mean you can abuse it
• and we expect students to be clean all the time and that they clean their own rooms regularly.
