I am a second-hand house owner, do I have to pay the property fee?

Property fees are also taxable, but that part of the tax should be paid by the property company. Strictly speaking, as long as the owner pays the property fee, there is no need to pay the business tax.

Legal analysis

Some properties still need to consult the local property management bureau when using the additional 6% business tax point. The general purpose of the property fee is the maintenance and maintenance of public property, as well as hiring relevant personnel to purchase equipment that must be used for leasing. Under normal circumstances, as long as you have already moved in or successfully purchased a house, you need to pay the corresponding property fee. Only after signing the relevant contract with the property management company, it is indicated in the contract that the property management fee will not be charged temporarily, or the property management fee is too high and has exceeded the government guidance price, you can refuse to pay as the excess. On the other hand, if the property management company fails to fulfill the relevant obligations stipulated in the contract, you can also not pay or at least not pay the corresponding property fees. Property fee refers to the fee that the property manager should pay according to the property service contract when providing property services. It is the owner's obligation to pay the property fee. If the owner is in arrears with the property fee, the property service provider may demand payment or bring a lawsuit, but it cannot demand payment by stopping power supply, water supply, heat supply and gas supply.
