Housemate is male, recent Cal grad in Mechanical Engineering currently working in the field.

Utilities & Connectivity

Water & Garbage: Included in the rent.
PG&E (Electricity & Natural Gas): The landlord provides a monthly credit of $75 toward the total PG&E bill for the unit.
If the monthly bill exceeds $75, the remaining balance will be split equally among the tenants as "additional rent" for that month.
Note: Berkeley residents typically use about 350 kWh per month. With the 2026 rate restructuring, staying mindful of heater usage in the winter is the best way to stay within this credit.

Maintenance: * Upkeep: Tenants are responsible for basic cleaning.
Prevention: To prevent mildew (common in coastal Berkeley), tenants must use bathroom exhaust fans and ensure proper ventilation.
Reporting: Immediate notification of any leaks or appliance issues is required to avoid damage. Repairs caused by tenant negligence (e.g., prohibited items in the drain) will be the tenant's financial responsibility.
