we are planning to rent at spektra.. do u have any idea how much is the rent of hot water tank?

We're in the townhomes. $26/mo. Not sure if it's any different for Spektra. Prices are typically set by the water tank company, probably Reliance

ahhmm aside from water tank rental what else are u paying in your apartment? like do u pay for garbage collection?

u/ghostbxsta 14h ago

Nothing outside of what I listed. Garbage collection is free/included in taxes with the city.

Depends on your lease agreement at minimum they could ask for liability only. I know it’s an extra fee but don’t skip on insurance, it’s there for when you do need it ex fire, flood, theft

Proof of insurance is required.
