1. In the residential area where there is no committee, if the owners want to use the housing maintenance fund, they should apply when the public facilities or public areas are seriously damaged, and obtain the consent of more than half of the owners in the residential area or the owners who account for more than half of the total area. Then the owner entrusts the property company to apply to the relevant management department (Property Management Office of Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau) to use the housing maintenance fund, and the Property Management Office of Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau checks the relevant situation. If the situation is true, it is necessary to publicize the maintenance situation in the community and determine the budget amount. After the expiration of the publicity period, the bidding matters shall be implemented and the construction shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant procedures. After the completion of the project, after the audit by the audit firm, the settlement shall be made according to the determined amount.

2. If the owners' committee has been set up in the community, when using the maintenance fund, the industry committee should confirm the necessity of maintenance according to the owners' reflection and some potential safety hazards found in the usual work inspection. Then initiate the owners' meeting, and after the owners' meeting votes, authorize the industry Committee to carry out relevant maintenance bidding. The owners' committee may apply for or authorize the property to apply for related maintenance matters. After being examined and confirmed by the Property Management Office of the Housing and Construction Bureau, it will be publicized in the whole community together with the announcement and budget. Then implement it according to the bidding procedure. After the acceptance of the project construction is completed, the audit firm will audit and settle the accounts according to the audit results.

The difference between maintenance fund and property fee

1. The ownership of payment is different.

The general house maintenance fund is a one-time fee that buyers need to pay before they formally move into their own houses. If there are no special circumstances, they don't need to pay again, and this fee is kept by the owners' Committee or the Housing Authority where the community is located, but the ownership of the use belongs to the owners. It can only be used when the warranty period of the house expires or the house in the community is overhauled. When it is used, all owners need to vote.

Property management fee is a kind of fee that the property management company will start to charge after the property buyers take over the house. The property management fee needs to be paid once a month or once a quarter. The property management fee belongs to the property management company, which is the remuneration obtained by the property management company for the daily maintenance, repair and rectification services related to residents' lives, such as housing construction and its equipment, greening, sanitation, transportation, public security and environment. Owners cannot default on property fees for any reason. Of course, if the property fee is unreasonable, or the service of the property company is not good after it is collected, and the owners complain, then the owners' committee can hold a meeting to decide whether the property company will stay or not.

2. The use process of expenses is different.

The right to use the maintenance fund belongs to all owners of the community, so if you need to use the maintenance fund, you need to obtain the consent of all owners of the community before you can use it. The specific application process is to apply to the owners' committee, and then notify all owners. If this measure is approved by two-thirds of the owners, you can only use the allocated funds and start maintenance after review and approval.

Property fees are generally used for the maintenance and management of residential areas. Therefore, if the public location of the community needs some minor repairs, or if the owners find any damage or problems, they can give feedback to the property management company and register with the property management office. After the property management company confirms the approval, they can use this fee to maintain and repair the community.

3. The cost range is different.

Maintenance funds are generally used when residential areas need decoration or transformation. Generally speaking, it mainly includes house waterproofing, wall maintenance and elevator maintenance. Daily minor repairs will be a bit overqualified if they are solved by public repairs. Except for the basic warranty period, generally speaking, the number of years of major problems is more than 10 years, so the public maintenance fund is more like the pension or guarantee of the house.

Property fees are generally used for minor repairs and minor repairs, and are generally used for environmental sanitation and cleaning care in the community. The reasonable use of property fees is enough to ensure the normal daily life of the owners.
