Condo rent in Bryan-College Station often includes HOA fees and sometimes covers water, trash, or internet. Bock Realty Group helps you understand what’s included so you can budget confidently.
Typical Inclusions in Bryan-College Station Condo Rent
– HOA dues: Usually bundled into the rent—covers community upkeep, landscaping, and amenities
– Water/sewer/trash: Often included, but not always—ask during your tour
– Internet or cable: Some student-focused units include basic internet
– Maintenance/repairs: Most leases cover major repairs, but ask who handles smaller fixes
What’s Usually NOT Included
– **Electricity:** Most units require tenants to set up an electric account (often with BTU or College Station Utilities)
– **Gas:** Less common but needed in some units with gas stoves or heaters
– **Renter’s insurance:** Sometimes required but almost never included
– **Furniture:** Unless listed as furnished, assume unfurnished
Why It Matters for Your Budget
– Knowing what’s included helps you compare listings more accurately
– A condo with $1,100 rent and included internet may be a better deal than $1,000 plus separate utilities
Questions to Ask Your Landlord or Agent
– Are any utilities included in the monthly rent?
– Who pays for electricity, gas, and Wi-Fi?
