Rights and obligations of property companies

As a service enterprise, the rights and obligations of property companies should be regulated by law. This paper will discuss the rights and obligations of property management companies from the aspects of decoration deposit, heating fee, maintenance fund and renovation contract, so as to help owners better understand the service contents of property management companies.

decoration deposit

The property company has no right to collect the decoration deposit, but the owner should inform the property service enterprise before the house decoration. Property service enterprises need to inform the owners of prohibited behaviors and precautions in decoration. Owners in the decoration process did not violate the agreement or inform matters, should return the decoration deposit.

Heating fee collection

Property companies have no right to charge heating fees. Whether there is a relevant agreement in the property service contract is the key. If there is no agreement, the property company does not need to bear the responsibility of collection, and the owner should not blame the property company for this. If there is an agreement, the property company is required to perform the collection service.

Emergency maintenance fund

When using special residential maintenance funds for emergency maintenance, more than two-thirds of the owners do not need to agree. However, it is necessary to inform the owners in advance, and the owners' committee or the property service enterprise shall publicize the use of maintenance funds in a prominent position to answer the owners' questions about apportionment.

Renovation contract

A decoration project contract shall include the identity information and contact information of both parties, decoration content, project location and area, construction period, decoration cost, construction basis, quality acceptance standard, waste disposal, prohibited behavior and matters needing attention, and liability for breach of contract. When signing a contract, please ensure that the contents of the contract are complete and legal, so as to protect the rights and interests of both parties.
