housing/maintenance costs
This sounds like an item that is meant specifically NOT to include rent (either because there is no rent as such or because rent is listed somewhere else as a separate item), i. e. as something involving ALL OTHER costs (maintenance, utilities whatever).

: Sometimes "housing costs" would includ rent / mortgage plus insurance plus maintenance plus utilities. So this is two answers and which is intended is unclear

You are right. I would go for different options depending on context. Something like house maintenance (if it's a house, not an apartment) costs or costs of upkeep or a combination of maintenance/utilities... I think the explanation is more useful here.
