Is the property qualified to cut off water and electricity?

Property companies have no right to cut off water and electricity. The parties to the water supply and power supply contract are the owner and the water supply and power supply company, while the parties to the property management contract are the owner and the property management company, with different legal relationships. The property management company is not a water and electricity supplier in the community, so it naturally has no right to supply water and electricity. According to relevant laws and regulations, property service providers are not allowed to demand payment of property fees by stopping power supply, water supply, heat supply and gas supply. Even if the owner violates the agreement and fails to pay the property fee within the time limit, the property service provider can urge him to pay it within a reasonable time limit. If the payment is not made within a reasonable period, the property service provider may bring a lawsuit or apply for arbitration.
