Yes but you can negotiate with house owner.
The general rule is no. If your apartment rent does not include water it must contain its own meter.
no i dont think they cant because its two adresses
Generally apartment complexes must include water, sewer, and garbage as part of the rent. Some exceptions may exist, for example, a building with fewer apartments: in this case the apartment must have its own meter. The landlord does not have the right to limit how much water a tenant uses.
This all depends on the laws of your state and the terms of the lease. The larger the apartment complex is, the likelier the landlord will have to pay for water, garbage, and sewer.
What type of equipment is used to detect a sewer leak? Can you find it with a meter?
Water, sewer, and garbage are paid by the landlord.
The length of a sewer line can be anything from one meter/yard to many kilometers/miles long.
Many states vary with this kind of rule: your rent may or may not include water and sewer. If it does this means the landlord pays your water and sewer for you. Depending on the laws of your state, your landlord may opt to have a water meter installed for your apartment so that you would pay such utilities.
In 1996 the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation made available through a municipal code Sec. 64 program called the Sewer Service Charge Relief Program. This program allows residential and commercial property owners the right to purchase a second water meter or water sub meter from DWP. The purpose of this sub water meter is to meter actual usage of water brought into the building or installed on the irrigation waterlines for calculation of the sewer service charge (SSC). This SSC charge is currently estimated if no water sub meter has been purchased. The savings can be as high as 80% off of the sewer service charges located on page two of a Los Angeles Department of Water and Power bill. I called California Utility Services 800-400-1727 and they did it all for me. I am now saving $130.00 every bi-monthly bill. They were professional and reasonable.
No and if they did your entitled to a 2% per month compounded interest refund check
No, renting an apartment is cheaper. If you rent a home, you still have to pay taxes on the property, as well as full sewer, electric and all ammenities.
Normally, the landlord does not charge for water. In most states it is illegal for landlords to charge their tenants separate utilities. However, the landlord can have utilities in its own name, the bills of which can be passed over to the tenant for payment. Also the tenant is not allowed to charge for water and sewer to tenant of multi family attached units (such as apartments).
A Sewer Service is both a physical connection from a sewage source (home or business) to a sewer system, and the use of that sewage system to handle sewage. Typically a local utility will charge a fee for Sewer Service; it may be based on the volume of water used by that customer.
YES, in most civilized areas
