Your landlord could also allow the charges to compile until you leave, then deduct it from your deposit. 

They will charge you money, but getting this on their credit report is a strong motivation for them to pay.

Try and do it all and have all these other companies as affiliates that charge fees but the main note company is the one who pays3.

Trenching, utility connection charges and etc. add a huge cost handicap which makes the economics unworkable in almost every case. 

When you leave voicemails and emails to Debbie P you get responses from a Kathy Tran and Sylvia Flores is wanting you to pay your invoice and then they tried to charge me $45 later for my next bid because I canceled but I canceled with an enough time to do my due diligence and discovered they are fraud so my account can sit there with $45 owed because I will never pay them

By the way, credit card expenses count when charged, not when the credit card bill is paid.Buy more stuff.

For example, one of the lenders I deal with requires at least a 700 score for "rookie" developers with no experience and requires a 25% down payment and charges 13% rate and 2.0% fees.

I think they charge around $1,500. 

I charge fees that create additional income.

Quote from @Miguel Del Mazo: It basically says that if the electric bill is twice what the same month's bill from last year was, the overage will be charged as a fine.That's a good barometer actually.
