Internet and Utilities for Mid-Term Rentals

Looking for some advice on how to handle utilities and internet for a mid-term rental! Do you let the tenant supply and pay for their own internet or is it recommended to offer internet and charge the tenant a flat fee? Also for utilities, same question! We were considering averaging the utilities over the past year for the property and charging that average as a flat fee for the tenants. Any guidance would be helpful! Thanks!

I pay the internet / utilities. You can add them but If you just go with what is active on furnished finder you will be right in the market range for the monthly rent and should cover the utilities + some. Most MTRs in my market are including wifi, water, electric, etc.
