Utilities
Hey BPers,
How is everyone doing? I will be closing on a three unit house at the end of the month which does not have separate utility hookups for each unit. What is the best way to still have the tenants pay their share of the utilities? I was thinking about dividing the utility bills based on square footage. So if one unit is a quarter of the building's square footage, the tenant in that unit is responsible for a quarter of the total buidling utilities. Thanks for the help!
