Haven’t yet received a bill since acquiring a 3 bed villa with pool in January.
When are bills issued and what are the usual costs for such a property?
Council tax was lifted from my bank account yesterday without warning so I need to ensure enough funds are in place for the water bill which could come any time.
Thank you.

Very helpful member
Below was 2020 would be higher now, but you should have had a bill by now, check with whoever registered for you. Did the lawyer did it all when you brought the property? Always keep enough in account to cover bills, they often don't send out paperwork.
Water cost is controlled by the local municipality. The amount you pay is metered and will depend on the area you are in and the amount of water you use. Part of the bill will be for the general upkeep of drainage, sewers, etc. Water bills for a two bedroom apartment should be around €15 per month whereas a larger villa with a garden to water and a private swimming pool could pay €120 per month.
