quedando el ARRENDADOR, desde luego autorizado para descontar de la garantía, el valor de los deterioros y perjuicios de cargo del ARRENDATARIO que se hubiesen ocasionado a la propiedad arrendada, como asimismo el valor de las cuentas o consumos domiciliarios que se encontraren pendientes.
"pending bills or household consumption"? It is a lease for a company premises so I don't think 'household' works here. Any suggestions would be gratefully taken into consideration!

utility bills or usage
"Domiciliarios" sounds natural in Spanish, but I don't think we'd use it in English. "Household" doesn't include all the other types of premises that might be possible, e.g., factory, office, shop, etc.
"Utility" sounds okay to me as an equivalent. I normally translate "consumo" as "usage", but I think "charges" might work better.
Utility Bill
The amount a household or office is expected to pay for electricity, water and/or gas each month. Utility bills vary according to one's usage.
