What formula do you use to calculate?

Karim,
we have RUB systems on all of our older multifamily assets. We love them! All of our newer assets have their own sub-metering systems (much better).

Good luck!

@Derrick Ward this is specifically for residential multi-family. I would imagine a very similar list could be used for a commercial building due diligence period, with adapted terminology.

@Koob Moua i have had decent luck with finding properties on the MLS. Typically uneducated small MF owners have single-family agents list their MF real estate on MLS and most investors are not conditioned to check there. ( at least not in my market). ( Was listed on MLS 6 months)
