How to pay the property fee if you don't live in a house?

When the house is not occupied, as long as the property provides services, the property fee should be paid. Details are as follows:

1. Just because the householder's house is vacant does not mean that there is no need to pay the property fee. After all, the property is to provide corresponding services for all residents of the community, regardless of whether there are residents or not, this house is also within the scope of property service management;

2. Even when the house is unoccupied, the property will check and maintain the equipment in all aspects and tidy up the environment. It is impossible to cancel the payment of property fees. When the house is unoccupied, the head of the household can submit an application to the property management company to explain that the house is unoccupied. General property management companies stipulate that property management fees are reduced and only 70% to 90% of the fees are charged. If no one lives for a long time, many property companies will also reduce or exempt them according to the situation.
