Obviously, larger houses have higher utilities because there are more lights people that leave on, more loads of laundry being washed/dried, more hot showers taken, etc.With that being said, someone would need to be booked 24 nights a month just to break even. 

I think my recent issues with sending enough cash for closing is one of the biggest lessons learned - but that’s because I have been here too long so my US account is mostly dry.
