← All four principles principle II

Housing Stability

Manage the physical conditions and materials required for stable living.

A home is a set of systems, not a feeling. These twelve cover what you own, where it lives, what it costs to keep, and the paperwork that proves the place is yours.

twelve missions

One a month, in this order

01
Inventory
Knowing what you own
FREE TO START
A complete material record. Clothing, furniture, equipment, electronics, tools, everything a household runs on. What it costs to keep stocked comes later, once the record exists.
02
Storage
What you keep and where
What is stored, where it lives, and whether you could put your hands on it today.
03
Sanitation
Keeping a space livable
Cleaning, laundry, waste, and routines that hold without requiring a heroic weekend.
04
Organization
A home that works
Whether your space functions or only holds things.
05
Information
Your housing paperwork
Every document your housing depends on, in one place, findable.
06
Administration
Rent, deadlines, and the paper trail
What is due, what was paid, what was sent, and what you can prove.
07
Law
Your rights where you live
What a lease actually says, what a notice actually means, and what you are entitled to.
08
Privacy
Your space and who enters it
Access, boundaries, and what you can require of a landlord or a housemate.
09
Transportation
Getting from here to there
How you move, what it costs in time and money, and what happens when it breaks.
10
Maintenance
What needs fixing
What is broken, who is responsible, how you request it, and how you documented asking.
11
Technology
Connection and devices
Connectivity and equipment a household now requires to function at all.
12
Communal Space
Sharing ground
Neighbours, shared areas, and negotiating space you do not fully control.
