New Provisions on Decoration Deposit 20 18

When the house is delivered to the owner, the general developer will hand it over to the property for delivery, with the purpose of letting the owner pay the decoration deposit; For the renovation of new houses, the purpose of the renovation deposit is to prevent the owner from supervising whether the house is operating in a standardized manner and whether the construction team is operating illegally. What's the new regulation of decoration deposit 20 18?

Decoration deposit regulations

1. At present, the developer will hand over the house key to the property when handing over the house, and the property will be handed over to the owner. At this time, the property will take the house as a bargaining chip and sign a series of contracts first, asking you to pay the decoration deposit. At this time, the owners rarely go to see it, and their minds are generally on the house. In addition, the property will use the house as a bargaining chip, so you don't have to worry about not signing or paying; What is the current decoration deposit? There is no clear stipulation in the law, nor does it stipulate whether it must be paid. In some places, there are regulations that do not require a decoration deposit.

2. It is precisely because there is no clear legal provision for the collection standard of decoration deposit, so when we sign the decoration management agreement and property agreement with the property company, we need to stipulate the relevant charging standards and methods to avoid unnecessary disputes in the later period; If you have an understanding of the property company in the early stage and don't want related property services, you can also sign relevant agreements with the property and directly find the real estate developer to hand over the house. At this time, the house key has been collected by the property, and the owner can replace the lock cylinder of the house without going through the property company after obtaining the legal information after the handover with the developer.

Can the decoration deposit be refunded?

1. If a relevant contract is signed with the property management company and the decoration deposit is paid, the owner shall perform the contract according to the terms of the contract; During the renovation, if the property has evidence that the owner has some illegal operations, part or all of the deposit will be confiscated by the property company; After the owner completes the house decoration as agreed in the contract, the property shall refund all the decoration deposit within the specified time.

At present, many property companies will convert the owner's decoration deposit into property fees. At this time, the owner also asked the property company to refund the decoration deposit, not to convert it into property fees. If the property service is not good in the later period of property fee conversion, it is not easy to change the property company.
