When will the property fee be paid? Is there a legal requirement?

Legal analysis: the property fee should be paid from the date of handling the real estate license, and the specific monthly or annual payment time is subject to the signed property service contract.

Legal basis: Article 41 of the Regulations on Property Management in People's Republic of China (PRC), the owner shall pay the property service fee according to the agreement in the property service contract. If the owner and the user of the property agree that the user of the property shall pay the property service fee, the owner shall bear joint and several liability from the agreement.

Property that has been completed but has not been sold or handed over to the property buyer shall be paid by the construction unit.
