In addition to paying for the basic rent of a new apartment, you also have to remember that you will most likely be responsible for some of the utilities as well. The amount that you spend on these can depend on where you live, how high or low you keep the temperature and whether or not the landlord covers some of these expenses for you or not. You need to look at some of the average utility   costs in your area to see what you can expect from this expense before you make a move.

For some of the apartments that you move into, you will find that the landlord will cover some or all of the utilities. This can be a nice bonus because it helps take one thing off your budget for the month. However, it is important to keep in mind that this is not the norm and most of the time, the tenants are responsible for their own utilities like natural gas, heat, electricity, and for cable, phone and internet. This is good sometimes because it does allow you some control over the costs and you can keep it lower if you would like.

If you have lived in the same city for a long time and plan to move to a new apartment in the same place, then you can use that information to help you know how much you need to spend on these utilities. If you are moving to a new city, then you may need to do a bit of research to figure out what the average utilities will cost in that area. This can help you to budget out a bit more.

Remember as you do this, utilities can fluctuate quite a bit depending on the size of the apartment and how much you use them. If you are worried about the cost of your utilities, you may need to look for some money saving tricks to help keep the costs a bit lower.
