请教一个租房付Utilities的问题

[1qazxsw2]

儿子这个学期sublease了一个房间。这个房子原来是5个人合租的。结果儿子搬进去才发现，这个房子只有他和另外一个人住，别人都搬走了。现在的问题是，Utilities的费用很高，1月份竟然有$1000, 2-4月每个月 $300多。儿子每个月的房租才$425。当初说的是Utilities大家share费用。问大概的费用，说只有50多。现在，另外一个人被自动扣钱，已经付了所有费用。他让我儿子付一半给他。

儿子第一次租房，没经验。想问下大家：我儿子有责任付一半的Utilities吗？

刚查了一下儿子的sublease，里面只提到了每月付425的房租。但有下面的条款：

The Sub-tenant and Tenant agree that all the terms and conditions existing in the

aforementioned Tenant/Landlord Agreement shall govern the relationship between the

Tenant and the Sub-tenant, and

c) The Tenant and the Sub-tenant agree that the Sub-tenant shall be bound by all of the

terms and conditions in the aforementioned Tenant/Landlord Agreement.

在原来的租房协议里，是这样的：
PAYMEN T OF REN T:

Each Tenant agrees to pay the Landlord on a monthly basis his/her share of the rate of $ 2,125.00 per month

($425 per month represents an equal share among five tenants). Each Tenant is fully responsible that the

total amount of his/her share is covered each month for the term of the lease. It is the collective responsibility of

the tenants to maintain five tenants (maximum) throughout the lease or re-arrange shared payment of the

full amount of $2,125.00 between fewer tenants if necessary. Shared cost of utilities that include: water, water

softener, heating, electricity, telephone, cable TV and internet, are the joint responsibilities of the Tenants (Important

关键是一月份那个1000是你孩子和另一个一起用的吗？要是的话，当然要平分了。

马上要补交到1062.5的房租了

我儿子1月7日入住的。问题是：这个房子是5个人签的一年的lease, 我儿子sublease几个月。他需要负担一半的utilities吗？

把一月7号之后的费用算出来，然后和其他住在房子里的人均分。

你娃用多少付多少，1月7号以后的自己住的那几个月算出来啊.

因为电费和煤气只是两个人在用， 道理上应该是两个人分

明显对你儿子来说是个不利条款。找The Landlord and Tenant Board咨询吧。争取有个好的解决方法，也算是你儿子上的社会课吧。

赶紧搬家

按说五房间的合同, 走了三人, 那三人如没找人sublet的话应接着付房租, 还应付与房间有关的.bill (如heating).
你儿子如只接了一个房间的sublet, 应只付一个房间的费用.

灰色地带是暖气。水和电至少应该均分。
如果暖气是由电产生的，是不是账单上有分开记录？如果有的话，可以和房东商量两个人平摊5分之3左右的费用。

这个说的是房租，没有问题。楼主恰好把utilities部分丢掉了。不过按照常识，应该是均分，尤其是水和电。

多谢大家的回复。

这是个老房子，用的电暖。儿子的sublease只提到每月付425租金。utilities是在原来租客的lease里，是这样写的：
Shared cost of utilities that include: water, water softener, heating, electricity, telephone, cable TV and internet, are the joint responsibilities of the Tenants

 

[1qazxsw2]

像这种本来5人合租，别人都搬走了，如果只剩一个人住，要一个人负担整个房子的取暖吗？
