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