Did you know...
Water Utility Rates are Rising
Across the country, water utility rates are steadily climbing year over year. A combination of aging systems, fewer resources, and extreme weather have pushed water and wastewater bills up by 30% in less than a decade.
Save Money, and the World
Studies show that individually calculated utility bills can reduce water, gas, and electricity usage by up to 35%. When tenants see a direct connection between their consumption and their costs, they’re more likely to conserve—benefiting both the environment and your bottom line.
But You Can Divide and Conquer
A well-executed Ratio Utility Billing System (RUBS) fairly distributes utility costs (water, sewer, trash) among tenants in buildings without individual utility meters. Our system allocates expenses based on factors like unit size, number of occupants, or a combination of variables—ensuring tenants share utility costs proportionally and equitably.
How Much Could Livable Save You?
Use our platform to equitably divide utilities without installing costly external monitoring systems like sub-meters. Try our savings calculator to see just how much you could be recovering each month thanks to Livable's RUBS platform.

using Livable to offset rising utility costs
Livable benefited my business by offsetting utility expenses through pro rata distribution to the lessee's and during the process reduced water usage by 25%. I no longer have to worry about what the amount of the bill will be as the residents also have an interest in not wasting water.

Livable was an excellent choice. Livable utility management offers a conscious responsibility to the owners and to the renters to ensure that the utility ratio billing is fair for both landlords and residents. Livable lives up to its simple program implementation. They are easy to connect with. I get immediate help if I need it. Thank you Livable.

Livable is an invaluable partner to our organization. For years in our rent-controlled city, the only way to increase the bottom line was through unit turnover. Utility costs increased by as much as 20%/yr, which directly impacted NOI. With Livable, we are able to not only recoup most of our utility costs but also are able to pass through future utility price increases.
