. - Maintenance & Repair: 5% of total rent- Cap ex / utilities: 5% of total rent- Property management: 8~10% of total rent- Misc & reserve: 5% of total rentFull rent: 4800(rent) - 2600(PI) - 800(TI) - 1150(Expense) = $250/mOwner occupied: 3600(rent) - 2600(PI) - 800(TI) - 1150(Expense) = -$950/mOwner occupied & no PM: 3600(rent) - 2600(PI) - 800(TI) - 700(Expense) = -$400/m I thought it would be $0/m if owner occupied although $400/m for myfamily is low enough.

Hello Jenna, I have been using Apartments.com for rent collection and billing utilities.

The tenant gets listed at the renter on the water bill and is supposed to pay it, it’s in the lease agreement they pay utilities.
