utility gap costs during vacancy

[Dave Chow]

Hi BP members,

How would house owners be responsible for water/electricity/gas utilities during tenants changing in KCMO?  

In general, who is under the utility account is responsible for all the utility costs. I called KCPL google fiber and they confirmed. 

For water, its a bit tricky. But who is responsible for them during vacancy? Do you every time call them to terminate the service or just get a bill during every vacancy gap? 

Thanks .
