We put water,sewer,and trash into the lease to make sure it is paid and not under the tenants control.So we will have base rent plus these utilities listed in the rent for a total rent price.Fulton county is one of the few counties in Georgia where a water lien SURVIVES foreclosure.No way to get rid of it except through the local council person with legislation or negotiating a payoff of the lien.With our apartment units the benefit is we get the bill so we can moniter water usage.If the bill is really large you can use a water leak adjustment form with the Fulton county water authority.Depending on the age of your property pay special attention to leaky faucets and old toilets leaking at the wax seal,the return line,and or the tank into the bowl.If you have plumbing leaks anywhere it will drive the water bill up.If you have an outside water spigot get it capped off or removed.Tenants are notorious for using water outside and driving the bill up.You better get a hold of this lien issue now or it will get worse.
