Good morning,

I had heard owners installed separate meter for their rental bedroom in dual key concept.

Alternatively you can include the electrical bill in the rental or if you have a few months' electrical bill, you can show tenants and ask them to pay above the average electrical cost. For example, past 3 months electrical cost is 175, 180 and 185. Average is $180 thus anything above will be borne by tenant.

Hope my sharing helps in aiding in your enquiry. May I know how can I value add further in your property needs?

Best regards,

Hi,

I would be most glad to assist you further and pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance. Have a good day ahead. By the way, no worries as you could install 2 reading meter for it. I do have some experiences in handling this as I have rented quite a fair bit to dual key units to date.

You may install a separate meter on your own. Otherwise it can be arranged just like a room rental where the bills can be coshared among the number of occupants equally. There are some other ways too.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 13 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

We are offering our clients a complimentary first consultation without obligations (Absolutely FREE!). Schedule for your FREE session today!

Hi,

1) It is not uncommon to install a separate meter in a dual-key unit.
2) However, you will do your own calculation to determine the dollars and cents.
3) The SP service will not install separate meters for a single unit. Their installation and billing are in terms of address.
4) You will have to find a licensed electrician to install the electricity and water meters.

Please give me a thumbs-up if the answer provided is relevant to your main concern. Thanks!!!

Hope the above answers your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Best regards

Hi,

I am currently staying in a dual-key unit, and I charge my tenant rental that is inclusive of wifi and utilities, subjected to a monthly cap on usage. This cap can be discussed before signing the tenancy. I think it is easier this way, instead of counting down to the cents.

Any areas you're looking at? I can propose your some options.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans. Please get in touch with me for a more in-depth discussion.

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile +65 97 48 63 05. I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,
