Do I have to pay the property fee if the house is unoccupied?

If the house is unoccupied, you have to pay the property fee.

Some owners buy houses for some reasons and don't move in, so a problem will arise: do they need to pay property fees?

From a legal point of view, according to the Property Management Regulations, the property fee is a reward for property services, and the owner must pay the property fee. Moreover, property services are public services, which are in line with the interests of the public and residents, so they are mandatory.

In addition, from a practical point of view, even if the house is uninhabited, the property management company still needs to carry out cleaning, fire protection, security and other maintenance work on the house, and the expenses of these work also need to be borne by the owner. If the owners don't pay the property fees, the services of the property management company will not be in place, which will bring trouble to other owners.

Therefore, according to laws and regulations and the actual situation, even if no one lives in the house, the owner still needs to pay the property fee.

Of course, the property fee of the house can be reduced or exempted in the following ways:

1. Negotiate with the property management company to see if some fees, such as security fees, can be reduced.

2. Arrange daily services reasonably, such as changing the property management company to weekly cleaning. , not the daily service.

3. You can try to find someone to lease or rent for a long time, which can not only increase the use value of the property, but also reduce the burden of some property fees for the owners.

In short, we should treat the payment of property service fees reasonably on the basis of laws, regulations and actual conditions. Let the owners fully understand the importance of paying the property service fee, and at the same time let the property company use the property service fee reasonably to satisfy the owners. Only in this way can a harmonious property order and a pleasant living environment be established.
