If you own rental property in Oxford, Ohio, water submetering gets you out of paying for water your tenants use and bills it straight to them. Oxford exists for Miami University, and the dense student-housing core around campus, the Mile Square and out, is overwhelmingly individually owned: duplexes, houses split into rentals, and small apartment buildings. A tenant who pays a flat rent and never sees a water bill has no reason to fix a leak or trim a long shower, so usage runs high and swings between units, and the whole roster re-leases on the academic calendar. True Submeter gives Oxford owners an affordable way to put an individual water meter on each unit, so every tenant is billed for exactly what they use. Usage drops, billing disputes disappear, and your net operating income climbs, with most owners recovering their full investment within six months. In a town built entirely around Miami, your water billing should track the same calendar your leases do.
