Regarding our utilities:

 

  1. I’ve attached 2 recent monthly Reef statements (we don’t receive WAPA bills, as The Reef pays WAPA and then includes our utilities charges on our monthly statements along with condo fees, hurricane insurance, etc.).

 

  1. You’ll see on the statements that The Reef adds a 7% electricity surcharge for managing these utilities/bills.

 

  1. We work from home full-time and run our AC wide open 24/7. Someone who’s not working from home here all day would have far lower utilities.

 

  1. Our utilities always go down in the cooler months (Dec – April), they range from $300 to $450 per month, and our annual averages across the entire year for both water & electric are $376/month (total), broken down into $235/month (electric only), & $141/month (water only).

 

  1. 2 recent months (full statements attached, but I’ve summarized/clarified below in a way that may be more helpful for potential buyers):

 

April 2021

  • This billing period covered 32 days; thus total below was $10.53/day ($6.37/day electric and $4.50/day water), including the Reef surcharge
  • Water: 1550 Gallons = $139.50; Electric: 439 KWS = $184.38; Reef Electricity Surcharge (7%) = $13.17

 

May 2021:

  • This billing period covered 29 days; thus total below was $13.42/day ($7.99/day electric and $5.43/day water), including the Reef surcharge
  • Water: 1750 Gallons = $157.50; Electric: 515 KWS = $216.30; Reef Electricity Surcharge (7%) = $15.45
