If people don't live in Ningbo, Zhejiang, can they get a discount in the second year?

There is usually a discount in the first year.

The regulation of Nanchang is: if the owner does not move in less than one year after the delivery of the house, he will pay 50% during this period. Ningbo depends on the specific regulations of the local housing authority. You can consult the property management company directly, they won't cheat you.

If the property fee is discounted in the second year, it will harm the legitimate interests of other owners, because the property management company takes the property fee as its main operating income, which comes from the joint commitment of all owners. It is unfair to other owners if some owners reduce their property fees.

Strictly speaking, the property management company has no right to reduce or exempt some owners' property fees, and it should be implemented in accordance with the property service contract.
