The property can't meet the service standard. Can I refuse to pay the property fee?

It is a basic contractual obligation of the owner to pay the property management fee according to the agreement, and it is a breach of contract not to pay the property management fee without sufficient defense reasons.

However, the owner may refuse to pay the property fee under the following circumstances:

1, the service quality provided by the property management company can't meet the standards agreed in the contract;

2, the property company without authorization to expand the scope of charges, raise fees, repeated charges;

3. The property management company increases the charging items without the consent of the owner. If the services provided by the property management company fail to meet the standards stipulated in the contract, the service quality is not in place. If the service quality does not match the charging price, the owners can directly negotiate with the property company through the owners' committee, or even hire other property companies to manage the community according to the contract.
