12. just seems high since the only utility will be electricity

It doesn't look like the units themselves have running water or bathrooms. They certainly won't have cable tv.

So the only utility each unit will use is electricity, which will primarily be heat, though the shared resources will also use water and sewage.

It might be perfectly reasonable, and certainly affordable. It is a great idea and I hope it catches on.
