The maintenance fund we usually refer to refers to the special maintenance fund for the property, which is paid by the purchaser when purchasing the commercial house, and entrusted by the agency designated by the government for safekeeping. It is specially used for the maintenance, renewal and transformation of the * * * parts and facilities of the property after the warranty period expires.

As early as a few years ago, when the housing was allocated in kind, that is, when the housing was reformed, units and individuals paid 10%, 1% or 20% or 2% respectively, and the purpose was the same as that of the current property special maintenance funds. At present, the maintenance funds for housing reform are included in the management of maintenance funds.
