Is there a late fee for paying property fees?

At present, China's property management regulations do not clearly stipulate whether the property has the right to collect, which needs to be determined according to the terms in the property service contract signed between the owner and the property company. However, in the existing judicial precedent, the court supports the property management to collect late fees according to the contract.
