Rental property with both attached ADU and detached ADU
Hi BP community,
I wanted to check in and see if anyone has experience in this area. We have a single family home that's been modified and now has an attached companion unit with its own kitchenette, bathroom and side entrance. So that's 2 units. On top of that, there's a brand new 2 bed 2 bath detached ADU in the back. So we're at 3 units now. My two questions are this.
1. Is it possible to split the cable service into 3 separate accounts, since there could be 3 separate families on site? I've called the cable companies and they can create the accounts as Unit A, B and C. But our electrician is telling us there's usually only 2 separate cable drops to the house, which implies it may be difficult to have a 3rd provider.
2. The second question. Is this just too troublesome to manage? Maybe it's better to keep as 2 units.
Any input is appreciated. Thanks.
