How to legally refuse to pay property fees?

Legal reasons for refusing to pay the property fee: the service agreement between the owner and the property management unit is a clear contractual relationship, and the rights and obligations of both parties are simple, that is, the property management unit provides services and the owner pays the property fee. It is the obligation of the property management unit to provide the agreed service, and its service is obviously not up to standard, that is to say, it violates the agreement and fails to fulfill its due obligations, so as the owner, of course, it has the right to refuse to perform the payment obligation, which is reasonable and legal.

Legal basis: Article 7 of the Property Management Regulations promulgated by the State Council clearly stipulates that "paying property service fees on time" is a basic obligation of the owners. Only under the following circumstances, the owner can not pay or underpay the property service fee: except as stipulated in the property management service contract, the property management enterprise provides services by itself, and the owner or user can not pay without the consent of the owners' committee or owners' general meeting.

The owner may refuse to pay for the part of the property service charge that belongs to the government-guided price. If the property management enterprise fails to fulfill the obligations stipulated in the property service contract, the owner may not pay or pay less the corresponding property service fee. Property management companies raise property service charges without authorization, and some owners who raise them without authorization may not pay them.

If the property service contract stipulates that the service fee should be paid in advance, and the property management enterprise fails to provide the corresponding service, the owner may not pay the corresponding service fee. If the property has a overlord clause, the owner can refuse to pay. For example, whether the previous property entered into a contract through consultation with the owner or entered into a contract by itself.
