Renters and Landlords
Who Should Complete This Form?
If you’re a rental property owner, landlord, or property manager, fill out this form to have MVEC automatically transfer electric service into your name when a unit is vacant.
How It Works:
- When a tenant ends their electric service, MVEC will switch it to your name.
- You’ll get an email confirming the service is active under your account.
- Once a new tenant sets up their own service, your account is deactivated.
- You’re only billed for electricity used during the time the unit is in your name.
Why Sign Up?
This agreement keeps the power on between tenants—so you don’t have to request service each time. It’s helpful for showings, cleaning, and security. Without it, power is shut off when a tenant cancels their account, and you’d need to reapply to restore service.
Third Party Notice – Why It Matters:
If a tenant’s service is disconnected due to non-payment, both you and the tenant will receive a notice—if this document is signed. This helps you stay informed and take action to protect your property.
- MVEC recommends having tenants sign a Third Party Notice Agreement before handing over the keys. It must be signed by both the tenant and the property manager to be valid. If electric service is at risk of being disconnected, both parties will receive a notice—helping property managers stay informed and take action.
- If your rental property is occupied, please ensure your tenants have contacted MVEC to set up an account in their name. Set up fees may apply.
- To avoid service interruptions, property managers or owners should contact MVEC to transfer service back into their name when a tenant moves out. MVEC is not part of the lease agreement, so someone must take responsibility for the electric service immediately when a tenant cancels. There can’t be a gap in coverage.
- If service is disconnected, a reconnection fee will be charged to whoever sets up the new account—whether it’s the owner, manager, or tenant.
- 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.
