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 and the user of the property agree that the user of the property shall pay the property service fee, the owner shall bear joint and several liability from the agreement. The property service fee shall be paid by the property developer before the property is actually delivered to the buyer for possession, and shall be paid jointly by the owner and the buyer after the actual delivery. Under normal circumstances, the property management service fee is paid monthly. Therefore, in real life, the property management service fee is generally paid in the second month after the buyer actually receives the house. In addition, when the owner receives the house from the developer, he has the right to actually occupy and use the house and enjoy the property management service of the property service company. As for the owners who actually do not live for some reason, it does not affect the property company to collect property service fees.
