How do property companies charge property fees for owners who have not lived for a long time?

Whether you move in or not, you have to pay the property fee. If it is not paid within the time limit, even if it does not move, the owner will also bear the liquidated damages.

1. According to Article 6 of the Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in the Trial of Property Service Disputes, if a property service company or enterprise has provided services in accordance with the contract and relevant regulations, the people's court will not support it only because the owner does not enjoy or need to accept the relevant property services.

2. As the owner, it is a basic contractual obligation to pay the property management fee.

3. If the owner doesn't live in the house, he should properly negotiate the standard of property fees with the property company in advance. If negotiation fails, he should still pay according to the contract.
