What should I do if I stop water for the owner privately because of the disputed property?

Property management companies have no right to cut off water and electricity without authorization.

Hydropower is a necessity for the owners of residential quarters. Even if there is a compulsory water and electricity cut-off agreement in the contract, the property management company can't ask the owner to pay various fees by means of compulsory water and electricity cut-off. If the owners fail to pay the fees, the property management company shall negotiate with the owners' committee to solve the problem, or bring a lawsuit to the people's court to demand the owners who are in arrears to pay the fees and liquidated damages.

The relationship between the owner and the property management company is based on the legal relationship of property management. According to the property service contract signed by both parties, the owner has the right to accept the services provided by the property management company and undertake the obligation to pay the property management fee. Property management companies have the right to collect property service fees from owners and promise to provide services agreed in the contract. Therefore, the owner should fulfill the obligation to pay the property service fee, and the property management company should fulfill the service obligation stipulated in the contract.

The property management company should take legal measures or ways to solve the problem when the owner does not pay the property service fee, but can't take measures to stop water and power. If the property management company cuts off water and electricity without authorization, causing losses to the owners, it will bear corresponding legal responsibilities.
