Do I have to pay a property fee if I don't check in?

If the house is unoccupied, you need to pay the property fee. Generally speaking, before buying a house, the developer has signed a contract with the owner, that is, the buyer agrees to participate in the property management of the whole community, and according to China's property management regulations, the owner has the obligation to pay the property management fee on time.

Although the laws and regulations do not clearly stipulate when the owner will start to pay the property fee, it is generally understood that the owner must pay the fee after handing over the house. In addition, after the property management company enters the community, developers will also pay property fees for those unsold and idle houses.

What is the principle of property charging?

1, principle of rationality

The principle of rationality means that the charging standard of property management should conform to the national regulations, the objective laws of property management and the actual needs of owners and tenants. Property management companies are not allowed to set up charging items without authorization and charge fees under various pretexts. Before the establishment of the owners' committee, the management fee standard should be reported to the government price department for approval; After the establishment of the owners' committee, it shall be determined by the owners' committee and the property management company in accordance with the price stipulated by the competent price department of the government or through consultation between the two parties. The management fee standard should consider the actual economic ability of the vast majority of users.

2. Principles of fairness and compensation

The concrete embodiment of the principle of fair compensation is that whoever uses pays; Whoever benefits pays. Whether users are owners or tenants, big owners or small owners, they should pay management fees for the properties they use. The more he uses, the more he pays. Different users share management fees according to the construction area of the property used.

3. The principle of openness and transparency

The management company and the owner are two equal legal subjects, not a question of who manages whom. Therefore, all the interests between the property management company and the owners must be made public and explained clearly in advance, not only for the owners' committee, but also for every owner. Only in this way can disputes be avoided.

4, the principle of service quality and charging standards.

The management fee standard should be adapted to the service quality. In other words, if the management fee standard is high, there will be more services, and the management level and service quality provided will be high. If the management fee standard is low, the service will be less and the service requirements will be low. Management companies should not only charge for no service, or charge more for less service, or charge more for lower service quality.
