Question

Help answer this question below.

Our lease states that we are responsible for paying the water/sewer bill, but the bill is in the landlord's name and we are told what to pay and we never see a copy of the bill. What are our rights?

    I believe that the law in my state requires that the owner pays water and sewer. If he wants you to pay for it he can do so by just raising your rent. You shouldn't be paying a bill that is in his name. He is out of line. You can refuse to pay it but be prepared for him to raise your rent. I would refuse to pay it.
