Who will pay for the maintenance when the elevator in the community is broken?

Generally borne by the property management company, the elevator maintenance is carried out by the elevator company or the entrusted maintenance unit.

Elevator belongs to public facilities and all owners. Generally speaking, the property management company does not need to bear the cost of overhaul or replacement of elevators in residential areas, and they can't afford it. It is the owner's responsibility that the elevator is broken. After all, the property management company is only hired by the owners. If some owners do not pay attention to themselves and do not take responsibility, the property management company does not need to take responsibility.
