Can I stop paying property fees when I am away from home for a long time?

Legal analysis: generally not. As long as the house is handed over, the owner has the obligation to pay the property fee, even if it is not a long-term residence. Because property fees are not only the fees charged for individual services of some owners, it is not appropriate to determine whether some owners enjoy some direct services. In other words, one or several property buyers can't live, and living more and living less will basically not affect the provision of property services. For example, there will be no shortage of security guards and no shortage of cleaning. In other words, one or part of the owners can't live, which is not of great substantive significance to the cost of the property management company. If you don't pay or default on property management fees on time, it will ultimately damage the legitimate rights and interests of most owners.

Legal basis: Article 41 of the Regulations on Property Management, the owner shall pay the property service fee according to the agreement in the property service contract. If the owner and the user of the property agree that the user of the property shall pay the property service fee, the owner shall bear joint and several liability from the agreement. Property that has been completed but has not been sold or handed over to the property buyer shall be paid by the construction unit.
