Is the public welfare fund distributed every year?

The public maintenance fund does not need to be paid every year, but only needs to be collected at one time when buying a house.

This fund is used for the maintenance and management of the parts, facilities and equipment used in the community, and will be overhauled, updated and transformed after the warranty period expires. If all the public maintenance funds are used up, they may need to be paid again.

The scope of public maintenance funds should generally include the following contents:

1, load-bearing structure of the building (including foundation, load-bearing wall, beam and column, floor, etc.). ), the external wall of non-load-bearing household wall, roof, lobby, public hall, corridor, aisle, stairwell, elevator shaft, septic tank in the building, garbage passage, sewer riser in the building, sewer pipe leading to sewage well, downpipe, etc.

2. Facilities and equipment system: elevator system, fire fighting system, security system, central monitoring system, water supply system, central air conditioning system and antenna receiving system.

3. Property management houses, open spaces, roads, green spaces, power distribution systems, municipal drainage facilities and guardrails and fences outside the property management area.

To sum up, the public welfare fund is a one-time fee paid by the owner when buying a house, which is used to maintain the parts and facilities of the house, rather than paying it every year.
