Summary from the owner:
"My name is Gopal, and I grew up in the area, completed my PhD at Stanford, and used to work in the area. I am looking for a tenant who is clean, generally quiet, and respectful of space. Some modest monitoring of the property will be required (grab the mail, take out the trash, coordinate minor issues with me over email or phone). Happy to provide references for the property with tenants who've had similar arrangement in the past. It's a great house in a great neighborhood. Feel free to reach out with any questions."

Please note that there may be a modest fee for running a credit check.
