Landlording MIL unit, separate or same utilities/internet

[Russell McCluskey]

What have some people done in regards to paying for utilities and internet within a home with a mother in law set up? I am likely going to include all utilities and internet in the rental price for sake of ease, but I wanted to hear how other people have done it or get feedback on this approach.

My condo is right above my rental unit & I thought of providing free internet since I am already paying for it & it would be close enough for my tenant to access it. However, what if your tenant starts to watch child pornography? Although unlikely if you screen well, I prefer keeping things separate & requiring my tenant to get utilities under his own name. Also I wont be getting calls or complains that his internet speed is slow, etc.
