An information statement provides:

  • A financial statement detailing outstanding monies owed on the property.
  • Any indemnity or agreement required by us with regards to the property.
  • A Special Meter Reading when required. If a settlement date is supplied, a special Meter reading will be taken on that date to establish water usage since the last billed meter reading.
