Hello, the warranty period of commercial housing is generally 5 years, and the developer or relevant manufacturer is responsible for the warranty period. \x0d\ After the warranty period expires, the residential maintenance fund can be activated if it involves the maintenance, renewal and transformation of residential parts and facilities. * * * Use parts include foundations, load-bearing walls, columns, beams, floors, roofs and outdoor walls, hallways, stairs, corridors, etc. * * * Facilities and equipment include elevators, fire-fighting facilities, green spaces, roads, sewer pipes and safety protection facilities. Housing maintenance fund is a part of the cost that every property buyer must pay when buying a property. Without paying the maintenance fund, it is impossible for the owner to get the house key. However, once the house you live in needs maintenance, it is not so easy to spend the money. It takes two-thirds of the owners' consent to start \x0d\ According to the relevant person of Shenyang Community Office, generally speaking, the owners of residential areas need to meet the following four conditions to start using the maintenance fund: 1, and the maintenance fund account has been established in the residential area or residential building; 2. The damaged parts must be public * * * parts and public * * * facilities; 3. It must be after the warranty period has expired; 4. The owners' committee must be established in the commercial housing community, and the entrusted property company will start and use the maintenance funds under the supervision of the owners' congress. In the case of meeting the above conditions, the owner of the house needs to apply for the house maintenance fund when he finds that the quality problems such as rain leakage need maintenance. \x0d\ The application for housing maintenance fund is divided into five steps. Step 1: After the owner asks the property management company for maintenance, the property management company submits the maintenance and reconstruction plan to the owners' committee, which mainly includes the maintenance content, the budget amount, the apportioned amount per square meter of construction area according to the budget, and the selection of construction enterprises. The second step, the owners' committee holds a general meeting of all owners, or goes door to door to solicit opinions, which must be signed and agreed by more than two-thirds of the owners, form a resolution of the general meeting of owners, and publicize it in the community for 5 days; The third step, the property management company will bring the relevant information to the district office for review; The fourth step, after the district bureau has passed the audit and spot check, the maintenance begins; Step 5: After the project is completed, the accounting department of the Municipal Real Estate Bureau will handle the accounting settlement procedures, and the accounting department will send a notice to the special account management bank to transfer the maintenance funds, and the special account bank will transfer the funds to the property company. For the community that has not established the owners' meeting and needs to use the maintenance funds, it is necessary to organize the declaration under the guidance of the sub-district offices and sub-district offices. \x0d\ The reporter learned from the owners' committee of the residential area where Ms. Wang lives that the application for housing maintenance fund in the residential area has been started, but it is very difficult to "require the signature and consent of more than two thirds of the owners", because the owners with housing problems want to start the maintenance fund to solve the problem, and the residents without problems do not want to use the money, so it is very difficult to meet the rigid requirement of two thirds of the owners' consent.
