House Rent
Rent
noun
Your house rent is your house rent, though it can be your apartment rent too.
The reading for 家 is an exceptional one. It is や, because when your landlord asks if you paid your rent, you always say yah (や), whether you did or not.

フグが私にどんな扱いをしてたか考えてみると、彼がどれだけ最低男だったかが分かるわ。私は彼の家賃から電話代から食費から何から何まで払ってあげていたのに、あの男は他の女と浮気してたのよ！
When I think about the way Fugu treated me, I realized that he was a real jerk. I paid his rent, phone bills, groceries, and everything, but he ended up cheating on me!
