Does the property have the right to cut off water and electricity?

Legal analysis: property companies have no right to cut off water and electricity. Even if the water and electricity in the community is collected by the property, at this time, the owner only establishes relations with the water conservancy bureau and the power supply bureau. At this time, even if the owner does not pay the property fee, the property has no right to stop water and power without authorization, otherwise it will damage the legitimate rights and interests of the owner. At this time, the property needs to bear the corresponding liability for compensation.

Legal basis: Article 944 of General Principles of Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the owner shall pay the property fee to the property service provider as agreed. If the property service provider has provided services in accordance with the agreement and relevant regulations, the owner shall not refuse to pay the property fee on the grounds that he has not accepted or does not need to accept the relevant property services. If the owner fails to pay the property fee within the time limit in violation of the agreement, the property service provider may urge him to pay it within a reasonable period of time; If the payment is not made within a reasonable period, the property service provider may bring a lawsuit or apply for arbitration. The property service provider shall not stop power supply, water supply, heat supply and gas supply to demand payment of property fees.
