The Property Law stipulates that at least several cameras should be installed in the community.

Without this provision, there is no necessary relationship between whether to pay the property management fee and whether to have a camera. When the property service enterprise takes over the residential area, if there are monitoring devices in the residential area planning or there are already monitoring devices, and this aspect is described in the property contract, then the property company should maintain and use the cameras well; If this equipment is not installed in the community and there is no such agreement in the property contract, then the property service enterprise will normally provide the prescribed order service according to the contract, and then the owner should pay the property management fee. If there is no monitoring equipment, the owner can ask the property management company to install it, but the cost needs to be borne by the owner, and the future maintenance cost will also be added to the management fee, which may rise.
