I attempted to provide the most transparent and up to date information on this site.

If you want to offer a "rebate" of some kind after they stay up to date for certain amount of time, I'm more inclined to go that way, but in general theres no real good reason to put yourself as the owner in the middle of the utilities unless they aren't metered in a way to bill directly.  

Then a closing date would be set.  

I own property and do interior design for rental and investment properties so I stay up to date from my clients and local events I attend through RE associations and meetups which I recommend.

Once the results are in, you will upload them to:https://leadcertification.phila.gov/loginIf your property is built after 1978 and you are getting kickback:Sometimes the Phila records are incorrect and they show wrong build dates.
