Owner provides the dwelling and its facilities, the tenant pays one month's rent as a refundable deposit in case owner needs to cover any outstanding damage to property caused by tenant. Tenant covers all his/her own expenses such as: electricity, garbage disposal, internet, and generally takes care of the space, keeping clean and tidy, the drains free and clear, and in the same condition as is provided by owner. If the tenant elects to keep a garden then the garden must be kept in order and not be left overgrown or otherwise in disarray. Priority will be given to those who do help to maintain the garden, but this is not a requirement. This lease is valid for a year, at which time the owner reserves the privilege of extending the lease another year or more.

Smoking is always permitted outside, but as the smell may eventually be difficult to rid the apartment of, could ultimately jeopardize the quality of the environment for subsequent tenants, and is therefore not permitted inside.
