What if the maintenance fund is paid four years late?
Generally speaking, the maintenance fund fee is paid before the house is delivered, and each owner needs to pay 2%-5.2% of the total house price as the maintenance fund. Regarding the payment method, the owner can directly deposit the relevant expenses into the special account of the maintenance fund, or entrust the residential real estate agent to pay.
The maintenance fund is collected by the developer and then transferred to the real estate management center by the developer. Generally, the owner should hand it over to the developer one month before handling the real estate license, and then the developer will hand it over to the real estate management center. If the developer requires the owner to pay the property maintenance fund together with the down payment, then the developer must pay the bank interest charged in advance during this period.
Therefore, if the maintenance fund is paid late, it can be paid back, but it may be necessary to pay more late fees.
Consequences of not paying maintenance fund for 4 years
Failure to pay the maintenance fund or late payment will not only affect the handling of the real estate license, but also produce late payment fees. If the maintenance fund and deed tax are not paid, it is impossible to apply for real estate license. According to the relevant regulations on the management of residential special maintenance funds, the development and construction units and other relevant units shall not deliver the houses if the maintenance funds are not paid as required.
It is stipulated that the owner needs to pay the deed tax and maintenance fund to the housing management department with the contract, purchase bill, ID card, household registration book and proof of marital status within 90 days after the house is closed. If the payment is overdue, there will be a fine of 0.5% per day.
The above is about how to pay the maintenance fund four years late and the consequences of not paying the maintenance fund after four years. Generally speaking, the buyer needs to deposit the house maintenance fund into the corresponding account or entrust the developer to pay before handing over the house. The maintenance fund shall not be used for other purposes.
