I mean, A 5:30 wake up call WTF? No phone after 7pm? I'm just in complete awe at the nerve.

That`s not a joke kids......they are dead ass serious
That has to be a joke. That cant be real.
Well just by posting that they have broken a few laws. And I think they have been reported to the police. There is no way you can control how ppl behave in your rental. I once went to look at a suite and they guy had a form that wanted your social insurance number and a credit card number. I took his form to the RCMP and he was fined. But seriously wtf who would even call that place except to tell the poster what a ass he/she/them are.
The scary thing is, I once lived in a basement "suite" very similar to that.
Not kidding....
I think they are describing prison. It struck me as a joke.
The few times I`ve rented I KNOW the landlords went through my things......I was told this and that and expected to adhere to all the stupid ass " rules ".......I never threw parties or had orgies, and after a few years of saving I bought a house.....they can do whatever the hell they want......it is their property.....and because of ass-shat renters, a lot have gone overboard trying to protect their property......and maybe not even overboard, after you`ve repaired things so many times, and had people skip out on their rent........I see both sides, but I really don`t think this is a joke........especially when you read their " bio "
Oh I know u get good and bad renters but that also goes for owners. And like I said they broke some laws just by posting that ad. I know you want to protect your property but you can't fine ppl nor spy on them let alone control the lights and heat.
If this isn't a joke, then these are some sick sick people. Haha.
Puh-leeze people! Leave 'em alone. If someone wants to pay these guys money to live that way let 'em. What do I care? It's funny as all get out & I could never ever do it, but I'm not renting form the. Neither am I renting a room in my home - if I did I'd probably have some rules of my own.
That's crazy! At least they are upfront about their insanity though. Gives potential renters a chance to steer clear....
Sounds like a job right up Suge Knight's alley!
It's Oakland.
'Nuff said.
Well I don't qualify.....

That's krazy but I guess if that's the room you want to rent you have to follow the rulez...
Man... okay first off in OAKLAND ??? Your trying to get some one killed ? I hope the big scary guy is packing some heat !
Has to be a joke. No true fundamentalist Christian is going to have cable TV in their home..... even for a limited number of hours a day.
Cable TV ='s Satan's Personal Network! Don'cha know?
I still do not get why it would be any of their business what time you get up in the morning. Sleeping in is not damaging to property.
Maybe this is payback to a landlord who really is like this.
Ex tenant didnt get deposit back because he broke the rules to many times or had an unauthorised visitor. So thought this was good pay back?
Lol KarmaKat maybe. But landlords can't tell you whom you can and cannot have in to visit.
I wonder will they get any interested tenants.
A sign of the times.
Not a job I'd want. I wouldn't doubt if the "thug" at the door demanding back-rent gets a gun or two pulled on him.
When I lived in the Bay Area, I tried to avoid certain sections of Oakland after dark.
I worked at this one company out there near the Oakland Coliseum, and my boss would strap his gun on if we were all working too late and it was dark when we were locking up.
Actually, the landlords cannot go into their rentals to do searches. No judge would sign an eviction order based on any of that crap. "Judge, our tennant was not up at 5:30 am. We want them evicted!" I think trying to enforce any of those rules would be grounds for the renter being able to get out of their lease agreement early without penalty. There's no way they can enforce the no calls after 7 pm. What if there's an emergency and somebody has to get a hold of you? Not gonna happen. I half want to email that person and ask to see the property. I really want to say that my boyfriend and I are up at 5:30 am every morning but I think this is a joke ad. At least I hope it is.
ETA: It does sound like it would be for a prison, however prisons don't allow small pets. These landlords cannot fine their tennants. It wouldn't hold up in court. These people are freakin nutso if they're serious.

I just read the ad....this is not a basement apartment for rent, this is maximum security prison. I cannot imagine anyone foolish or desperate enough to agree to such terms!
Well..the thing is, IF someone actually signs the lease with all these stipulations on it, then it means they agree to the terms, and if they do get evicted or something it CAN hold up in court, as they had the lease and signed it.
Thats why you always read before you sign.
Its Funny, weather its a joke or not
If it is real, cult-y, thats all, cult-y.
I wonder if this is an ad to live in a Scientology complex?

Someone is arranging the cupboards again?
I thought it sounded ok until I read the part about no matches or lighters allowed. How would I light my candles and incense for my full moon rituals???

On the internet you can be anything you want.
It is strange that so many people choose to be stupid.

That van wouldn't happen to be down by the river....would it?
Ive sold lots of things on craigslist. You get the weirdest people answering. My neighbor whom I got my 65 Mercury from is computer illiterate. So ill paste pics of the cars he sells. The guy is a master Technition at a dealership in Oakland and buys the jacked up trade ins. Fixes them at the dealership during off hours and makes money on them. Last one was a 2004 Kia Rio that got traded in for a busted timing belt. The owner never changed the oil in like 5 years and the oil got so gummy that it snapped the timing belt. He fixed it and redid the head, then resold the car for $7500. Nice little gas saver. But the people that came out to look/buy it were weird. One woman wanted the car and asked to make payments on it, another guy came to buy the car and then said he really wanted a wagon and asked to be introduced to the house across the street , another wanted to have the car donated to some drug rehab place. Finally after 3 weeks of running the ad for the Kia it finally sold but wow, some real weird people cruise craigslist. Not to mention the African spammers that answer ads.
