In violation of regulations, the property company collects decoration deposit and late payment fee. Where can I complain and solve the problem?

On the problem of collecting decoration deposit

Decoration deposit, also called decoration deposit, is a restrictive means to prevent owners or decoration companies from illegally decorating. At present, there are relevant laws and regulations in China. Under normal circumstances, the property company should negotiate with the owner during the renovation, or clearly stipulate in the property management contract, otherwise there is no legal basis for the property company to charge.

On the problem of overdue payment.

First of all, the property management company is a public service enterprise belonging to the general legal person and has no right to collect late fees.

Secondly, what we usually call property late payment fee actually belongs to a kind of compensation for breach of contract in property management, so it depends on whether the property management contract in your community clearly stipulates the relevant agreement of decoration deposit. If there is a relevant agreement and the liability for breach of contract is indicated, the owner shall perform it. If there is no agreement on the behavior of the property company, it is illegal.

Finally, I'll give you a suggestion.

According to Article 26 of the State Council's Property Management Regulations: "The prophase property service contract may stipulate the time limit; However, before the expiration of the term, the property service contract signed by the owners' committee and the property management enterprise takes effect, and the previous property service contract is terminated. "

A property company like your community should belong to the prophase property. If you think it is unqualified, you have every right to re-hire a new property company to serve you.
