In general, however, the tenant is typically responsible for paying the service charge.<\/p>\n<p>Service charges are fees that cover the cost of maintaining and managing common areas within a rental property, such as cleaning, repairs, landscaping, and utilities. These charges are separate from the rent payment and are usually outlined in the lease agreement as an additional expense that the tenant must pay.<\/p>\n<p>It is important for tenants to carefully review their lease agreement to understand their obligations regarding service charges. Failure to pay these charges could result in penalties or legal action by the landlord.<\/p>\n<p>In some cases, the landlord may cover certain service charges as part of the rental agreement. This could be a negotiating point during lease negotiations, so tenants should clarify with their landlord what services are covered and which are the responsibility of the tenant.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the general rule is that the tenant pays the service charge, but it is always best to confirm with the landlord to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes down the road.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Can_a_landlord_charge_a_service_charge\"><\/span>1.
