If his TV is cable ready and your cable company offers basic cable with out a cable box then just use a cable rated splitter and run the cable to his TV without a box he will only get basic and probably advanced basic. You need a cable box or a TV with a built in decoder to get digital signals.

What is the average cost to have cable?

Depends on what services are being delivered: * Digital cable phone? * Digital cable internet? * Digital cable television? * Expanded TV channels or premium channels? Mine is about $125 per month and includes 20MB download, 2.0MB upload, digital phone with loads of options, and digital television with extended channels, one movie tier and a hundred or so commercial free radio stations. The cost would be about the same whether in an apartment or a house. Some rental properties include the very basic TV channels and nothing more.
