Does the handover of water and electricity require the presence of both parties?

Legal analysis: Both parties don't need to be present at the handover of water and electricity, as long as you bring a new house ownership certificate, ID card and the receipt of water and electricity paid by the original owner last time to find the property to handle. One-meter house is transferred in the water supply company where the house is located. If you need to handle the business of bank withholding water fee, you need to bring the original and photocopy of the real estate license, the original and photocopy of the owner's ID card, the bank card/passbook, and there is no information about the original owner.

Non-one-household-one-meter houses need to go through the renaming formalities at the neighborhood committee/property, and some need a copy of the original owner's ID card.

Legal basis: Article 33 of the Measures for the Registration of Houses shall submit the following materials when applying for the registration of the transfer of ownership of houses: (1) an application for registration; (2) the identity certificate of the applicant; (3) Property right certificate of the house; (four) materials to prove the transfer of ownership of the house; (5) Other necessary materials.
