Water Bill & 2 Tenants

Sam Stabler
Posted

How do you split the water bill among 2 tenants in a SFR property (main house and detached unit)?

Is this something you charge and collect separately or is this added onto the asking rent price? Any pointers would help

I'd either put in separate sub-meters or just include water in the rent and price the rent accordingly.  Otherwise, you're going to wasting time dealing with squabbles over the bill.
