Tenants owe property fees. Who is the property company suing?

1. Should the tenant sue the owner or the tenant for the property that owes the property fee?

The lessor, that is, the owner, sued the tenant in court. Article 42 of the Property Management Regulations stipulates that the lease contract stipulates that the lessee shall pay the property fee, and if the lessee refuses to pay it, the lessor shall bear joint liability. The property company asked the lessee for the property fee, but the lessee refused to pay it. Property companies can charge owners, that is, lessors. The legal relationship of China's civil code also determines that the owner and the property company are directly related to the civil code and indirectly related to the lessee, and the owner, namely the lessor and the lessee, is directly related to the lease contract. The lessor should directly sue the lessee for breach of contract with the house lease contract, and it is fully established to require the lessee to fulfill the obligations stipulated in the contract. If the property company sues for paying utilities and property fees, then the defendant must be the landlord and lessor, and the lessee is listed as the third person or the second defendant at most. If the lease contract is not filed, the property company directly sues the owner.

1. How to punish tenants for defaulting on property fees?

1. If the tenant is unwilling to pay the property fee, the property management company has the right to ask the owner for it.

2. Because the agreement (lease contract) between the landlord and the tenant is an agreement of both parties and has no effect on the third party (property company), it is the legal obligation of the landlord to pay the property service fee on time. Therefore, if the lessee fails to pay the fee on time as agreed by both parties, the owner shall bear joint liability according to law.
