If I get a 1 BR apt in Manhattan, How much utilities I have to pay?

Question

What are the name of the places I can call to have my utilities turned on. The only place I heard of is Con Edison Electric & Gas but how much is water, cable/internet, heat/AC, phone, gas, electric, etc. Please help.

Answer 1

When you find an apt. check with the super.  Heat & Water are included in rent.  Con Ed provides the electric and gas for cooking.  Telephone, cable and internet is what ever company you wish to deal with.  AC you buy and install if the building code permits one.

Answer 2

If you can afford to get a 1bdrm in Manhattan I think utilities will be chump change.

Answer 3

This must be your first time renting.  You need to call around and see if anyone offers utilities as part of rent.  All utilities are calculated according to usage.  The more you use, the more it will cost.
