How we manage the utility companies for your rental investment in Washington
Please plan on paying your utilities through to the second day of the renter taking possession of the rental property. We advise renters to put utilities in their name 1 day prior to occupancy. We encourage this overlap between renter and rental investor to ensure that the utilities do not go off during the transition.
