Consultation on property fee increase

Legal analysis: the property can ask for an increase in the property fee, but the decision on whether to increase it is in the hands of the owner. Only after the owners' meeting or the industry Committee votes can the property company increase the property fee. However, since it is a vote, there will obviously be some voices of opposition, and it is also common to refuse to pay property fees because of rising property fees. However, the property is to provide services for the owners. Without capital investment, the quality of service will decline, and an appropriate increase in property fees is conducive to maintaining the community.

Legal basis: Article 7 of the Measures for the Administration of Property Service Charges states that if the property service charges are government-guided prices, the price department of the people's government with pricing power shall, jointly with the real estate administrative department, formulate the corresponding benchmark price and its floating range according to factors such as the grade standard of property management services, and publish them regularly. The specific charging standard is agreed by the owner and the property management enterprise in the property service contract according to the specified benchmark price and floating range.

The property service charges that are regulated by the market shall be agreed by the owners and the property management enterprises in the property service contract.
