Setting up utilities for tenants
I have a triplex that I'm currently getting set up to be rent ready. I wanted to make sure that the tenants were paying utilities rather than paying for them myself. Previously I had 1 meter for 2 of the units. I recently just installed a 3rd utility meter. I have the electric company coming to set up the electric to run to the newly installed meter. However, I was curious as what to do for gas. Do I have the gas company come out and get that set up to the same meter? I wasn't sure if I need a separate gas meter for that. Any insight is helpful.
