Is it legal to collect property fees for one year at a time?

It is unreasonable to prepay the property fee for one year. The correct way is to pay monthly, but now many property companies will pay property fees three months in advance for convenience. According to Article 18 of the Measures for the Implementation of Property Charge Management, without the consent of the user, the one-time advance payment of property management service fee cannot exceed 6 months.

Legal objectivity:

"Provisions on clearly marked price of property service charges" Article 2 When providing services to the owners (including providing property services as agreed in the property service contract and providing services other than those agreed in the property service contract upon the entrustment of the owners), the property management enterprises shall clearly mark the prices in accordance with these Provisions, and indicate relevant information such as service items and charging standards.
