Good afternoon I'm looking through the ads and noticed that they all contain the line “Comm. payments are included without meters” - is this how everyone rents out apartments now? That is, unlimited consumption of water and electricity?

No. This means that the tenant will pay the bills.

no, this means that the rent itself (including gas, intercom, contributions for major repairs, etc.) is paid by the owner of the apartment, and it is the tenant who pays for electricity and water, sending or transferring this amount to the owner with a monthly payment

All payments depending on the intensity of resource consumption by the tenant/tenant are usually paid separately (water, electricity, Internet, television, etc.). This is precisely the meaning contained in the excerpt you cited.
The point is that Cyan forces commercial payments to be included in the total amount, but it is not possible to include metered expenses there, because it's different for everyone
. And this phrase is included by conscientious landlords, so that you are not deluded by the low price - considerable expenses for electricity, water and gas on the meters will be added to it

About 2 thousand rubles per month approximately
Payment for the meters is the responsibility of the employer. This includes: electricity, hot and cold water supply, sewerage and Internet (gas in Moscow is a fixed fee and is not included in the additional costs of the tenant)
. That is, all utilities, the volume of which depends on the intensity of consumption of the employer himself and for which metering devices are installed, are paid by the one who uses them). As a rule, on average they calculate 1000 rubles per person, but it all depends on how often you pour water, turn on and off the lights, and so on...

Almost every person has faced the need to either rent or rent out an apartment for some time. The search for a suitable option occurs in different ways: some search through friends, others through advertisements... Found - what next? And then the future tenant negotiates with the owners, during the conversation the phrase is heard: “Utilities are included, except for meters.”

Public utilities
What are there and what does housing and communal services include?
Utilities include the transfer of utility resources to consumers in residential and non-residential premises, including land plots.
Utilities are cold and hot water, electricity and heating, thermal energy, gas, solid fuel for stove heating, if any. The list of utilities also includes sewage disposal and garbage removal.
We tell you in detail about utilities.
What will you learn
There are two documents that regulate the rules for the provision and payment of CG:
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation on the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings.
- Housing Code of the Russian Federation.
Utilities and housing services are not the same thing. It is important to remember that utilities include the transfer of resources. Housing services include the management of an apartment building, as well as the maintenance and repair of common property of residents.
Payments for utilities can be made to the management company or HOA, or directly to the supplier.

Utility providers
The CG provider is the organization that provides them to consumers.
In an apartment building, the executor can be a management organization, a partnership, a cooperative, or a resource supply organization - a supplier of a certain resource.
In a residential building, the contractor may also be a gardening or vegetable gardening non-profit partnership.
- Provide consumers with utilities, which are included in the contract, around the clock and in full.
- Conclude agreements with resource supply organizations for the supply of resources.
- Maintain engineering systems.
- Monthly take readings of community meters and take readings from individual metering devices - water, gas, electricity - consumers. Take the readings into account to calculate user fees.
- Calculate the amount of the fee and recalculate if necessary.
- Receive complaints from residents and inform them about accidents and work that may interfere with the filing of the CG.
Performers in one house can be several organizations at once: a management company and resource suppliers.
Possible options for cooperation
It is preferable to draw up a rental agreement that will help avoid conflicts. It is important to indicate in the contract who is obliged to pay for utilities. If there is a division of responsibilities, then all positions should be spelled out in detail. If there is no written agreement between the two parties, then all the nuances must be discussed orally. Officially executed documentation acts as insurance not only for the landlord, but also for potential tenants.
The owner decides how it is most profitable for him to receive rent. That is, utilities are paid by the landlord. In this case, the monthly fee will include the cost of utility consumption. If housing and communal services become the responsibility of the tenants, then it is also necessary to pay rent to the landlord.
What is included in the list of utilities for individuals
Here is what is included in the list of utilities provided to residents:
- Cold water.
- Hot water.
- Thermal energy.
- Drainage.
- Electricity supply.
- Gas supply, including domestic gas in cylinders.
- Heating.
- Solid fuel in the presence of stove heating.
- Maintenance and repair of common property.
- Garbage removal.
A consumer may have one utility or several, but not necessarily all, that are included in the list.
If an apartment building does not have a common metering device (UDPU), the fee for its installation falls on the shoulders of the owners of the premises. The owner of an apartment can pay the general income tax in one lump sum or in installments up to five years; for non-residential premises - only in one lump sum.
CG must be provided around the clock. If an accident occurs or maintenance work is being carried out, the contractor can suspend the supply of a certain resource, for example hot or cold water, for several hours until the cause of the accident is eliminated or the work is completed.
What is included in U1 services
U1 services include one meal during the entire trip. The list of dishes included in the basic menu depends on how many hours you will spend on the road and what half of the day you will have to deliver containers of food.
- If the passenger stays in the carriage for less than a day, he is offered breakfast or dinner.
- If we are talking about a trip lasting more than a day, then the diet includes lunch with a first course.
The menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner is standardized, but when purchasing a ticket, the passenger can choose between the available options. For example, between breakfast and dinner.
Receipt structure
There is no approved form of receipt, but there is an approximate form of a payment document. The receipt is generated by the management organization. It contains a list of utilities and housing services, indicating what is included in other services, if any.
The receipt for payment of utilities consists of several sections:
- Information about the payer and contractor.
- Calculation of fees for housing, utilities and other services.
- Reference data - this includes the readings of general metering devices and the total volume of consumption of the heating system in an apartment building.
Tariffs, volume of consumption and prices for each type of resource are also written on the receipt. If there is data on debt, overpayment and recalculation, they are also indicated.
The consumer is obliged to pay the bill before the tenth day of the month following the billing period. And the contractor must send the receipt by the first day of the month following the expired billing period.
Receipt for payment of housing, utilities and other services in an apartment building from the management company
How is the account formed?
The invoice is generated based on standards or the volume of consumption of utility resources.
If metering devices are installed in the premises, the amount of payment for a utility resource is calculated using the formula: the volume of resource consumed is multiplied by the tariff.
If there is no metering device, the amount of the fee is determined according to the standards and is calculated using a different formula: the number of people living in the apartment or house is multiplied by the consumption standard and the price of the utilities.
If it is technically possible to install the device, but there is no metering device, the calculation formula has a multiplying factor of 1.5.
What is included in utilities? rules for providing utilities
House maintenance services, which include repairing the same utility networks and cleaning the local area, are also not taxed. And finally, residents are interested in how payments for consumed resources, that is, electricity or heating, are calculated? Meanwhile, Government Resolution No. 354 states that the size depends on the following factors:
- meter readings, which reflect the actual consumption of certain resources during the billing period;
- social norm of consumption per person established in a certain region.
That is, if the apartment has a metering device for all types of listed resources, payment will be calculated based on the cost, for example, of the same cubic meter of water multiplied by the amount of water used.
Is it possible to refuse certain types of services?
You cannot refuse housing and communal services, but you can refuse additional services that are included in the receipt: radio or television, dispatcher, security and other services imposed by the management company. To resolve this issue, you need to contact the supplier and write a statement of refusal.
Contact the management organization and find out how to refuse additional services that are included in the receipt: through it or through the supplier. You may need a certificate from the supplier about the absence of debt.
