We often hear from clients that splitting up electricity meters isn’t worth the cost. This is not true. Splitting up electricity meters and adding a granny flat meter can save you money.

Often, landlords include utilities in the rental cost. If renters are not responsible for their electricity usage, they are more apt to leave on the lights and electronic appliances when it is not necessary.
