Can I not pay the property fee when I hand over the house?

No, according to the requirements, as long as the house is delivered, the house is yours, and the property provides services for the community, so you have to pay the property fee. Property service refers to the public * * * area, and the service for the uninhabitable public * * * area has already started. The time to pay the property fee shall be the time determined by signing the property contract.

Under what circumstances do you not need to pay property fees?

1. The developer's delivery is overdue. When signing a purchase contract with a developer, it is usually stated in the purchase contract that if the developer has overdue delivery, the developer needs to pay a certain penalty. And if the developer fails to produce the corresponding documents when handing over the house, that is, what we usually call "two books and one form", that is, "Residential Quality Manual", "Residential Quality Guarantee" and "Completion Acceptance Record Form", then the owner can refuse to take over the house, and the developer not only needs to pay liquidated damages for this, but also should bear the property expenses incurred when handing over the house.

2. In the case of unqualified house inspection, although the owner has signed a purchase contract, when the owner officially closed the house for inspection, he found that the house was actually unqualified. The owner can refuse to hand over the house and reject the house accordingly. If the handover is unsuccessful, the property fee will not be generated, and the owner certainly does not need to pay the property fee.

3. There are quality problems in property services. If it is just an ordinary minor problem, such as the delay in maintenance of the property company, it is really wrong for the owner to refuse to pay the property fee. However, if the property company fails to perform the property contract, the owner can pursue the responsibility of the property company according to law, ask it to continue to perform its responsibilities, and compensate the owner for certain losses. Due to breach of contract, the owner can refuse to pay the property fee.

4. The original owner is separated from the property user. Although the original owner owes money, the current property user and the original owner are actually jointly and severally liable, that is, the current property user is actually the owner. In this case, as long as there is enough evidence to prove that the original owner has separated from the property user and the original owner does not pay the property fee, the current property user should pay the property fee.

5. Property management companies occupy public areas for profit. According to the regulations, the public * * area of the residential area serves all the owners, and the property management company shall not occupy the public * * area for profit without permission. If the property management company needs to occupy the public * * * area, it needs to hold an owners' meeting, and the static owners can only continue after agreeing. However, the property management company can't use the public area to make profits without authorization, and its profit income needs to serve all owners, and it should also be made public to all owners. Of course, the owner can't directly refuse to pay the property fee, but he has the right to urge the property company to feed back the profits to the owner.
