  • Makes sense. Retired people already pay a surcharge because they're home all day so why not work from home people too?
  • I don’t understand. If you’re home more, you’re already likely to pay more in utilities. But now landlords want to charge more for “wear”? Sounds like greed to me.
  • This is because of additional power & water costs? The landlord should install individual meters on the units. Or at least sub-meter, so they can be paid accurately by the residents. Offering unlimited utilities is a stupid mistake by a landlord.
