Provisions on property fees for vacant houses. Do I have to pay property fees during the vacant period?

Yes, but you can only pay part, not all.

The State Council's "Regulations on Property Management" does not stipulate how to collect the property management service fee before the owner or user moves in after the property is sold. Some provinces and cities stipulate that vacant properties that have not been occupied for a long time (for more than six months in a row) after the owner has gone through the check-in formalities shall be filed in writing with the property service enterprise, and the vacant property fees shall be paid at 70% to 90% of the stipulated or agreed service standards. The specific proportion shall be formulated by the local price and real estate management department.

If the property has been delivered to the owner, the property fee will be charged from the month after the property is delivered to the owner. But the vehicle management fee should be paid in full. For the property and parking space that has not been occupied or used for more than one month, the owner shall submit a written application to the property service enterprise in advance, and after confirmation, pay the management fees such as motor vehicle parking service fees or parking space utilities, sanitation fees, etc. according to the prescribed standard of 70%.

First of all, the collection of property fees involves the property fees before and after the property delivery (the developer's vacant house property fee) and the property fees of the owner's vacant house after moving in.

Secondly, the key to determining the obligor to pay the property management service fee is to see who is the party to the property management service contract. If the property has been sold and delivered to the owner, the owner is the obligor to pay the service fee. After the property is delivered, it shall be borne by the buyer, and the owner's property fee shall be calculated from the date of delivery and collected in full after occupancy.

For vacant properties that have not been occupied for a long time (for more than six months in a row) after the owner moves in, and vacant properties that have not been used for a long time after moving in, the owner shall file a written record with the property management company, pay the vacant property management fee at 70% of the stipulated or agreed service fee standard, or collect the property fee according to the provisions of the relevant departments of provinces, cities and counties on the reduction and exemption of vacant houses.

The "Measures" stipulate that other water and electricity costs such as public lighting and landscape facilities shall be separately measured by the property service enterprises, allocated according to the facts in strict accordance with the water and electricity price policy, and published regularly.

The use of property * * * with parts, * * with facilities and equipment for business, shall obtain the consent of the relevant owners, owners' congress, property services companies, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant procedures. Owners' income should be mainly used to supplement special maintenance funds, and can also be used according to the decision of the owners' congress.

It has become common sense that vacant houses should also pay property fees, but how much to pay is still controversial. Article 6 of the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in the Trial of Property Service Disputes stipulates that the property service enterprise has provided services in accordance with the contract and relevant provisions, and the people's court will not support it if the owner only raises a defense on the grounds that he does not enjoy or does not need to accept relevant property services.

In addition, there are different regulations on how much property fees should be paid for vacant houses. For example, as stipulated in the Measures for the Administration of Property Service Charges in Wuxi City, from June 5438+1 October1day, 2006, property management companies will charge 70% of the normal property service fees for properties that are not occupied or used. Shaanxi province issued regulations on 20 14, and the charging standard is also 70%.

Wuhan, Nanjing and other places also implement this standard. The regulation of Heze, Shandong Province is that 60% of the property fees should be paid for vacant houses that have gone through the formalities for vacant houses for more than one year. The property fee for vacant houses in Shijiazhuang is only 20%, which makes the owners happy, but the property thinks it is difficult to maintain operation.
