Yes Wylie, I agree, I don't think it should be a problem after a water audit.
My only regret was that I didn't know about the RTA requiremnts when I had the water wise services done (before April 1). If I did I could have asked at the time to give me in writing that the property complies.In the latest move by my agent, and taking the principle of CYOA to a new level.. and despite my trying to convince them on the phone that is is not required… they have stated that it is their 'new' policy that they will have to state on the rental advertisment that tenant pays for water. (that ain't happening!)
To note, I asked if any other clients of the agency are charging for water. Answer: out of the 600+ clients for spread between the 6 property managers none are charging for water.Thanks for your suggestions Opportunity, I am going to act on both of these by asking the agent to take note of the existance and condition of these devices in the inspections. I will also see if they can add in the special conditions of any new leases that the tenants have noted the water saving devices. I think for the latter, that the agent will react by saying the tenants, like myself, don't have the means to varify that the house meets 3 WELS standards.. but I'll see what they say.
Thanks again
