When electric service is disconnected to a rental property for non-payment, there can be consequences for both the property manager and/or owner as well as the tenant involved. The Third Party Notice is important because it is a signed document by both parties. If a disconnection letter is mailed, both parties receive a copy. This allows the property manager and/or owner to be notified when their property is in jeopardy of disconnection.
Other Helpful Information
- Property managers and/or owners can avoid unnecessary disconnections by contacting MVEC to transfer service back to the owner.
- If property is occupied, please ensure your tenants have contacted MVEC to set up an account in their name. Account set up fees apply.
- If service is disconnected, a reconnection fee will be applied to the account set up in either the property managers, owner’s name and/or the tenant’s name.
- MVEC recommends property managers and/or owners have their tenants complete the Third Party Notice form – before keys are issued. The form must be signed by both resident and property manager to be valid.
- MVEC members, who are renters, must have the owner of the property agree to the general terms of the Energy Wise programs prior to any installation.
