Is it legal for the property to charge the house name change fee?

Legal analysis: it is illegal for a property to charge a house name change fee. Because the owner changes when the house is transferred, the property service department needs to register the owner, which completely belongs to the daily service scope of the property company. And the property service contract will not stipulate the renaming fee, so the property company has no right to charge the house renaming fee. If the property forcibly collects the renaming fee, then the owner can complain to the property management department.

Legal basis: Article 41 of the Regulations on Property Management should follow the principles of reasonableness, openness and adaptation of fees to service level, and distinguish the nature and characteristics of different properties. Owners and property service enterprises shall, in accordance with the measures for charging property services formulated by the competent price department of the State Council in conjunction with the competent construction administrative department of the State Council, stipulate in the property service contract.
