If the property service is not in place, can the owner refuse to pay the property fee?

Legal analysis: 1. If the signed property service contract clearly stipulates that the property company can refuse to pay the property fee when the service is not in place, it can refuse to pay at this time. 2. If there is no agreement in this clause, and there is evidence that the quality of property service is really poor, you can pay less or no property fee according to the actual service level and service quality.

Legal basis: "Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in the Trial of Property Service Disputes" Article 3 Property service enterprises fail to perform or not fully perform the provisions of property service contracts or laws; The people's court shall support the maintenance, conservation, management and maintenance obligations stipulated by laws, regulations and relevant industry norms, and the owners request the realty service enterprise to undertake the liabilities for breach of contract such as continuing to perform, taking remedial measures or compensating for losses.
