What should I do if the residential property fee is too high? Under what circumstances can I refuse?

Most of the houses bought today need to pay property fees, which are paid on time every month. Many property buyers are not particularly willing to pay property fees. Many people think that the property will not repair their houses for free, so there is no need to pay the property fee, and the current property fee is not a small amount. What should I do if the residential property fee is too high? Under what circumstances can I refuse to pay the property fee?

What should I do if the residential property fee is too high?

The payment standard of property fees is not decided by property buyers or property companies, but there are still many property buyers who are dissatisfied with the property fees and feel that the property fees are too high.

1, the owners' committee can be established.

If the property fees charged by the owners of the community are too high and they are not satisfied with the property fees, an owners' committee can be set up and a meeting of owners can be held to discuss and decide. As long as the owners' committee is established in the community, the property service company can be determined or replaced by public bidding or agreement bidding, and the owners' committee will determine the charging standard of property service on behalf of the owners' assembly and the property service company.

2. You can complain to the housing management department.

There is no clear limit on the property fee of commercial housing, and the market-regulated price can be implemented. Therefore, the property management fees charged by property management companies should be formulated according to the area, number of floors, service level and standards of the community. However, if the owners feel that the residential property fee is unreasonable or dissatisfied with the property company, they can report it to the housing management department, or they can set up an owners' committee, and the owners' representatives will defend their rights.

Under what circumstances can I refuse to pay the property fee?

The property fee does not include the maintenance of facilities in the owner's entrance door, so these problems such as furniture and household appliances do not belong to property management, because the property is not responsible for maintenance, and buyers cannot refuse to pay the property fee because the property does not provide indoor maintenance services.

1. No property service contract was signed.

The relationship between the property and the owner is the contractual relationship between service and service. If the property company does not sign a property service contract with the owner, then the owner can refuse to pay the property fee! However, if the property company has signed a property service contract with the industry Committee, but not with individual owners, then the owners can't refuse to pay the property fee!

2. The property raises the charging standard and expands the charging range without authorization.

When a property management company provides services in violation of the contract or relevant provisions, it expands the scope of charges, raises the charging standards or charges repeatedly without authorization, and the owner raises a defense on the grounds of illegal charges, and the people's court shall support it. If the owner requests the property to refund the illegal fees it has collected, the people's court shall support it. Therefore, if the property management company charges in violation of regulations, the owner can raise a defense and refuse to pay.

3. Without the approval of the relevant departments.

For the collection of property fees, the property company needs to obtain the original approval documents from the price management department. If the property company does not approve it, the owner will not have to pay the property fee, so the owner can ask the property company to show these documents when paying the property fee to inquire whether the property fee should be paid.

There is evidence that the property service is too poor.

If the service quality of the property management company can't meet the standards agreed in the property contract, then the owners can also refuse to pay the property fee, but they must have sufficient evidence for this, and then take the initiative to negotiate with the property and tell them what they have done wrong, and should not charge the property fee or undercharge the property fee, and make a good record of the negotiation. Once the property sues for default on property fees, the owner can argue that it is not malicious default.
