Whose is the outer wall of your home?

1. Who owns the external wall of the house?

The external walls of residential buildings usually belong to all owners of residential areas, not individuals. Because the ownership of the external wall has been clearly defined in the house purchase contract, if there are relevant provisions in the property contract that clarify the ownership of the external wall, they shall be implemented in accordance with the provisions in the contract.

Second, who is responsible for external wall leakage?

1. First of all, the exterior wall of the residential area is still under maintenance, which is the responsibility of the developer. During the maintenance period, the property must be coordinated, notified and informed in place. If the external wall has exceeded the maintenance period, it should be repaired by the public maintenance fund, but there are certain obligations such as formulation, declaration and approval when using the public maintenance fund property.

2. The warranty period of the external wall of the house with water leakage in the community is generally five years. Therefore, at present, many new buildings will be provided directly to the owners in the residential quality guarantee, and the warranty period of the external wall of the residential area will be agreed. Once the warranty period expires, the external wall needs to be overhauled, and the maintenance funds can only be used for maintenance after the decision of the owners' meeting and relevant departments. Therefore, if the owner is still in the warranty period, he can contact the developer directly.

3. Residential property companies can also carry out maintenance, but it needs to be reminded that self-maintenance costs cannot be directly deducted from property fees. If the matter is urgent, the owner can recover the advance fee in full when carrying out the advance maintenance.
