It is a triplex with all its own separate metering so tenants all pay their own utilities. 

Hey everyone,I'm looking into small-multifamily property to house hack here in the Inland Empire, CA and just wondering how common it is for the utilities to paid for my tenants?

As John said, the appraisal not coming in high enough is the most common issue (not that it's very common, I don't want to scare you), but sometimes we can work it to your advantage if it's only off by a small percentage.  

Also your monthly expenses are greater as you must cover all utilities and tv and internet services.  

My question to the community is what should I look for in terms of common problems.

Fairly common scam.One thing perhaps you can do as well is go when they are not there. 

Is that common? 

It’s common to see some level of fees.  

I found a common theme by doing just that about generational or legacy wealth creation.

I get that they are a student, so these items are quite common.
