I moved into a new apartment at the beginning of last month. My lease (and when I signed it, my property manager) states that the landlord will pay certain utilities charges, but my first bill stated that I was responsible for these myself.
I called my management company and explained the situation, and was told that that was put in the lease "by mistake," that they would not pay these charges. This doesn't seem okay to me, because by that standard they could renege on any clause or detail in the lease.
I haven't paid the bill yet, but it is due soon. Any thoughts on how I should handle this?
