Is it legal to pay the property fee in advance?

It is illegal to pay the property fee in advance without the consent of the owner and the user, but it is legal if both parties reach an agreement through consultation and meet the requirements of the local government. Generally speaking, property fees should be paid monthly. The property company can entrust the bank to collect the property fee, and the bank will automatically deduct the property fee for the current month. If the property management fee is not paid on time, the owner still refuses to pay it after the property management company has fulfilled the dunning procedure, and can sue.
