When selling commercial housing, the purchaser and the selling unit shall sign the relevant maintenance fund payment agreement, and the purchaser shall pay the maintenance fund to the selling unit (developer) according to the proportion of 2-3% of the purchase price. The maintenance fund collected by the developer belongs to all owners and is not included in the residential sales income.
How should the housing maintenance fund be used?
1. A community without an industry committee.
In a community without a 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 get the consent of more than half of the owners in the community, or 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. Established a community with an industry committee.
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 peacetime 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.
When will the property maintenance fund be paid? The property maintenance fund is paid when the house is closed, but it belongs to the owner * * * and is used for the maintenance, renewal and transformation of public parts or public facilities and equipment in the future. The property management company is only escrow, and can't misappropriate it at will. Owners can complain to the real estate administrative department when they find that the property company has misappropriated it. Property companies need to regularly use the company's maintenance fund details to let owners know where the maintenance fund is going.
