Is it illegal to decorate privately without paying the property decoration deposit and decoration service fee? Come on in, corporate.

Delivery is the obligation of the developer to deliver to the owner. It is also possible for him to entrust the property to the owner, but in fact, the property should provide a power of attorney. Otherwise, the developer should fulfill the delivery obligation by himself. Moreover, the entrusted dispute itself has nothing to do with the owner. The developer is the counterpart of the commercial housing sales contract.

First, you only need to pay the decoration deposit when you need to decorate. The decoration deposit is collected to restrain other decoration companies and self-installed owners from damaging public facilities during the decoration process. If the decoration company causes any damage in the construction process, it will compensate according to the price and bear corresponding responsibilities.

Regarding whether to collect decoration deposit and decoration management fee, there is the biggest dispute between the owner and the property company, and there are many disputes in actual operation.

On the one hand, due to the great security risks in the decoration process, problems such as dismantling load-bearing walls without permission, blocking sewer pipes, disturbing people by construction, and public disorder caused by the casual entry and exit of decoration personnel will damage the interests of the community, and the elevator carrying cement and sand will also cause wear and tear to the citizens. In this process, the property company really needs to invest manpower and material resources for management and restraint. Therefore, general property companies require owners to pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars of decoration deposits before renovation, and promise to return them after renovation.

On the other hand, according to the provisions of the Notice on Regulating Property Charges, property companies are not allowed to collect decoration deposits and decoration management fees by themselves. The decoration deposit received will be repaid within one month after the owner finishes the decoration.

Friendly reminder: considering the overall environment of the community and the residential quality of the community residents, it is reasonable for the property to collect the decoration deposit, but if there is no special agreement, according to the current policy, the owner can still refuse to pay. The decoration management fee is unreasonable, and the owner does not have to pay it.
