Apartment question re: water charges
Kia ora, I'm helping a family member with apartment hunting and we're a bit confused about water charges.
The confusion is due to several listings saying that cold water is included. I have never come across this before. Does this mean that the landlord pays for cold water and the tenant pays for hot water?
I have only ever come across the rule that the landlord pays fixed water rates and the tenant pays for what they use.
If someone can explain this, that would be very helpful. Thanks. 🙂
