How many years is the property fee valid without prosecution?

Three years. The limitation of action for property fee disputes is three years, counting from the date when the last property service fee expires. The property service contract is a continuous contract, which is applicable to disputes that the property company requires the owner to pay the property service fee, and the statute of limitations is three years. During the three-year limitation period, the property can bring a lawsuit at any time, demanding the owner to pay the property fee and compensate for the losses. Those who are sued for not paying property fees shall be mediated by the court first. If the mediation fails, the owner will be awarded compensation, and the property company that the owner refuses to perform can apply for enforcement.

Who should I talk to if there is a dispute over property fees?

1. After a property fee dispute occurs, you can seek the competent price department of the people's government at or above the county level and the real estate administrative department at the same level as the competent price department.

The price departments of the people's governments at or above the county level shall, jointly with the real estate administrative departments at the same level, strengthen the supervision of property service charges.

2. If it is a dispute caused by the owner's overdue payment of property fees, then you can find the owners' meeting.

In violation of the property service contract, the owners fail to pay the property service fee within the time limit, and the owners' committee shall urge them to pay it within a time limit; If it fails to pay within the time limit, the realty service enterprise may bring a lawsuit to the people's court.

3. In the property contract signed by the owner and the property service enterprise, the time and amount of property fee collection should be included.

The owners' committee shall conclude a written realty service contract with the realty service enterprise selected by the owners' congress.

To sum up, the property service enterprise should sue the owner within three years after the owner defaults on the property fee, and the specific prosecution time is decided by the property service enterprise itself.
