Is it legal to refuse to enter the community without paying the property fee?

First, the rights and obligations of the property service contract

The property service contract signed by the owner and the property management company is the basis of the rights and obligations of both parties. The owner shall pay the property fee according to the time and amount agreed in the contract, and the property management company shall provide the agreed property services, such as security, cleaning and greening.

Second, the way to recover property fees

When the owner fails to pay the property fee on time, the property company has the right to take legal measures to recover it. This usually includes sending reminders and taking legal proceedings. However, property companies cannot take measures to directly prevent owners from entering the community, because such behavior may infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of owners.

Third, the legitimate rights and interests of the owners.

As a legal resident of the community, the owner enjoys the basic right of residence and right of way. Property companies cannot arbitrarily deprive owners of these rights. Even if the owner does not pay the property fee, the property management company should solve the problem through legal channels instead of taking drastic measures.

Four, the responsibility and limitation of the property company

As a service provider, a property company shall abide by the contract and relevant laws and regulations, and shall not infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of the owners. Property companies should take reasonable and legal ways to solve the problem of unpaid property fees, such as consulting with owners and seeking legal channels.

To sum up:

It is illegal to refuse to enter the community without paying the property fee. Owners and property management companies should solve the problem of unpaid property fees through legal channels in accordance with the property service contract and relevant laws and regulations. Property companies can't take drastic measures to infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of owners, but should seek legal and reasonable solutions.
