Can a property company not sign a contract?

1. Can the property contract not be signed?

The property contract between the property company and the owner is also unnecessary. Property companies must sign property contracts with owners as follows:

1. For the project under development and construction, the developer and the property management company shall sign the preliminary property management contract.

2. For formal projects, if there is only one or several big owners, the owners will directly sign a property service contract with the property management company.

3. For a formal project with multiple owners, it shall be decided by the owners' meeting, and the owners' committee shall sign a property service contract with the property company.

The property company does not need to sign a property contract with the owner:

If it is residential, usually the property company will not sign a property contract with a specific owner. Because the services provided by property management companies are mainly public areas and public facilities, no owner can be fully responsible for the clients. Therefore, only developers and industry committees can sign property contracts with property companies. Developers and industry committees represent all owners in the contract. Therefore, although there is no contract with specific owners, the property company must also perform the contract and assume management responsibilities; Similarly, owners must also abide by the obligation to pay property fees.

Second, what kind of contract does the property contract belong to?

According to Article 937 of China's Civil Code, property contracts are classified into one category by the Civil Code, and they all belong to the category of property service contracts. The characteristics of the property contract are as follows:

1. The property service contract is a civil contract based on equality and voluntariness. Traditionally, the property service contract is also called the property management contract, but it is essentially different from the administrative contract signed by the administrative organ with the relevant units to realize the administrative authority.

2. Property service contract is a special entrustment contract. The property service contract is based on the entrustment of the owners' congress and the owners' committee, but it is different from the general entrustment contract. According to the provisions of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC), "an entrustment contract is a contract in which the client and the trustee agree that the trustee will handle the client's affairs." The entrustment contract is based on mutual trust. Either party to the entrustment contract loses trust in the other party and can terminate the entrustment relationship at any time.

3. Property service contract is a contract with labor as the subject matter. The obligation of the realty service enterprise is to provide labor services such as house maintenance, equipment maintenance, public security, sanitation, landscaping, etc. as agreed in the contract. Property service enterprises have the right to receive remuneration after completing the agreed obligations. There are also essential differences between property service contracts and contracts involving the provision of labor services. A contract is a contract in which the contractor completes the work according to the requirements of the customizer, delivers the work results, and the customizer pays the remuneration. Although the contract also involves the provision of labor services, the labor services provided by the contractor are only means, not the purpose of the contract. The contractor should use his services to produce some materialized results and bear the risks in his work. If the contractor fails to complete the work, he shall not ask for remuneration. Property service contracts take specific services as their content. As long as the realty service enterprise completes the agreed service behavior, the remaining risks shall be borne by the owner.

4. Property service contracts are agreed contracts, paid contracts, bilateral contracts and compulsory contracts. The owners' committee and the realty service enterprise reach an agreement on the terms of the contract to establish the realty service contract, without taking the actual delivery of the property as an important element. The realty service enterprise is a profit-making enterprise legal person who obtains a business license, participates in market competition, operates independently and is responsible for its own profits and losses. There is no free property service, so the property service contract is a paid contract. According to the content of the realty service contract, the owners, owners' congress, owners' committee and realty service enterprise all enjoy the rights and perform their obligations, so the realty service contract is a two-way contract. The comprehensive service scope of the property service contract is wide, the interests are significant, and the performance period of the contract is relatively long. In order to avoid the weakness that oral contracts are difficult to obtain evidence, the property management regulations clearly require that property service contracts should be concluded in written form and reported to the property management administrative department for the record, so they are necessary contracts.

During the performance of the realty service contract, the realty company, the owners, the owners' assembly and the owners' committee are not allowed to terminate the realty service contract without authorization on the grounds of distrust, and the realty service contract can be terminated according to law only if the termination conditions stipulated by law or agreed in the contract are met. In addition, the entrustment contract can be paid, unpaid, oral and written, but the property service contract can only be written and paid.
