It is illegal to increase the price of real estate.

Of course, it is illegal to increase the price of property fees without the approval of the owners' meeting and re-record them at the local price bureau.

Article 43 of China's "Property Management Regulations" stipulates that the competent price department of the people's government at or above the county level shall strengthen the supervision of property service charges in conjunction with the real estate administrative department at the same level.

Article 4 1 stipulates that the property service charges shall follow the principles of reasonableness, openness and adaptability to the property service level, and distinguish the nature and characteristics of different properties. Owners and realty service enterprises shall, in accordance with the measures for charging realty services formulated by the competent price department of the State Council jointly with the administrative department of construction, stipulate in the realty service contract. In other words, the increase in property fees of property companies must be approved by the owners' meeting, and it is legal to modify the property service contract and file it with the local price bureau.

Property fees have nothing to do with the qualification grade of property companies. According to the qualification management measures of property service enterprises, the qualification level is related to the scale of property projects undertaken by property companies. An unqualified property company may not undertake property management projects. As for the statement that star service is hotel service, how much property fee the property company charges must be in line with the service standard, and the service standard of the property company must be made public. The standards before and after the price increase are different, and the price increase must be agreed by at least half of the owners. Otherwise, the price increase behavior of the property company is illegal.
