When my husband rented this flat he has been told by the landlord that the electricity would be around $40. Since we moved we always paid around $70 for the electricity. I have asked landlords who are renting out their condos/town houses and they said around $200 which seems to me a bit low compare to the electricity bill we are paying. Friend of mine said they are (landlords) giving me the lower end so that you will rent their house. She also told me that they pay around $300 for water. elect. and gas. I'm a bit confused. By the way, I'm in Calgary.
