Whether there is a maintenance fund in the old community is uncertain. You can check with the owner. If the house pays the maintenance fund, then the house has a maintenance fund. If the house is too old and has not paid the maintenance fund at all, then there is no maintenance fund for the house. After the maintenance fund is paid, it will be used for the maintenance and update of the public facilities and equipment in the community after the house has passed the warranty period.

Matters needing attention when using the housing maintenance fund are:

1. The maintenance fund must be earmarked. Can only be used for the renewal and maintenance of public facilities and equipment after housing insurance. It cannot be used before the warranty period.

2. When using the maintenance fund, it must be approved by more than two-thirds of the owners of the community, and it is not allowed to misappropriate the maintenance fund.

3. When the maintenance fund is idle, it can be used to buy government bonds, but it cannot be used for other purposes.

4. If the house has not passed the warranty period, but it really needs to be renovated, you can apply for using the maintenance fund, and you can pay part of the expenses in advance to pay the down payment for the project. Yoshiya real estate encyclopedia, buying a house needs more knowledge.
