Thanks, I'll be sure to research about including certain utility specifications in the agreement. Hopefully I can learn from your mistake. Thanks again! =)

Thank you thank you thank you! You guys and gals are fantastic with all this info. I greatly appreciate it, I really do! =)
That puts me at ease. It seems best to have the tenants pay for utilities. And I'll just call the utility companies to see how their process works. I'm not sure why I was over thinking this.
Thanks again!

Thanks again! You're right, it is kind of a game here. I guess it doesn't hurt to experiment. I'll do more research by calling the utility companies and asking how they deal with renters. And will definitely look at the options for water billing.
Cheers.

Thanks for the advice. Hmmm... weird, I guess Facebook is not unlink from the BP account. Maybe there was a delayed between FB and BP. But problem solved. Thanks again!

Thanks for the info. You do have a good point, if the tenants aren't paying for it then chances are they don't care how much they consume. Imagine having the AC and Heater running all day. The bill would be crazy high.

Thanks for the info. In that case, would the owner pay for the utility and incorporate the price into the rent? Or would you forward the tenant the bill every month to have them pay it? Thanks again.

Hi all,
I linked my Facebook to my BiggerPockets profile. I want to remove it, but can't. I went into Facebook, setting, apps, and removed the BP app. However, my Facebook still shows on my BP profile. Any advice on how to go about removing this?
Thanks.

In Cleveland were I invest the property owner is the only name that the water can be in.
Hi James, thanks for the info. Just to double check, the utility services will be under my name until the tenant calls to switch it into their name, correct?
Here in Sacramento, I believe sewer and garbage will be in the owner's name. I'm not sure about water. We're in a dough here so water prices are increasing. Would be nice to be able to switch water into the tenant's name. Thanks again!
