Do you know how to get the wording right so that you can still recover the cost of water rates when a meter is shared between two or more units? Under the RTA you cannot charge for water which is not separately metered. Putting in another water connection for which Watercare will charge you $12,000 $14,000 is not really a smart option. But if you get the wording right, you can still recover most of the Watercare costs from the tenant.
Shared power meters for multiple units are also a difficult issue, but again there are a number of ways for the landlord to recover electricity costs, both approximate, or sometimes even to separately invoice power usage.
Many houses were split into separate living areas in the past: the legality of these conversions can be a minefield to navigate. For example, in some areas parts of houses were rented separately when the rules said that they were not separate units as long as they did not have a stove. These days the Auckland Council tends to say that if such a unit has a kitchen sink, then that is not okay and it must be removed. A ruling like this could cut an income stream from your property.
You need a manager who understands what is required and how to work the rules. For example, that same property which was not rated separately could be sorted out if it could be shown that the alterations were done before 1991.
