Making a mistake in the calculation or timing of a utility allowance and/or failing to analyze the effect on tenant rents can be costly.  In this webinar, you will learn:  how utility allowances affect your rents, what methods are allowed by the IRS and by your state, how they work, what makes the most sense for your property, if-when-why and how you can or should change the method you are using, how other funding sources (HUD/RD/HOME) affect your choices, your responsibilities to the tenant, to the owner and the monitoring agency.
