I own a property and rent it out. What are my obligations?
If a tenant leaves a property with unpaid debts, the principle of “non-solidarity" prevails. This means that we will not hold you responsible for your tenant's debts IF AND ONLY IF, no later than 30 days after the change of occupation of the dwelling:
- you provide us with the identity of the outgoing and incoming occupants;
- you provide us with the meter reading;
- you have equipped each dwelling with an individual meter, in the case of apartment buildings;
- you have provided evidence that the condition of the installation is not the cause of any abnormally high consumption.
If the building is unoccupied, the owner is liable for the costs of the fee and the consumption logged until a new occupant arrives.
