FAQ

Monthly utility costs will now reflect actual usage by houses and tenants. We want our tenants to pay exactly what is owed. Homeroom will therefore provide credits to tenants if expenses are less than $140 or charge an overage if expenses are greater than $140.
No. Homeroom guarantees that this adjustment is merely to cover all costs incurred by tenants. Neither our company nor the property owner will make a cent of profit from this new process.
The Livable team will calculate all charges at the end of the month to determine the credits or overages to be added to each member’s ledger.
You will only be charged for the prorated number of days your lease is active.
Homeroom will post the charge or credit to your account on the 27th of each month which will be due along with your rent.
