Can I collect the property fee in advance before handing over the house?

Hello, it depends on how the contract you signed with the developer was agreed. If there is an agreement in the contract to collect property fees in advance before handing over the house, then the developer has the right to collect them; If there is no agreement in the contract, it cannot be used as an additional condition for handing over the house. The collection method of property fees shall be agreed by the owner and the user of the property in the contract, and neither party may change it at will. If there is no clear agreement in the Purchase Contract that the owner should pay the property fee in advance, then there is no legal basis for the developer to collect the property fee in advance before handing over the house.
