The public * * * maintenance fund refers to the maintenance fund for public * * * parts and facilities and equipment of residential buildings according to the Administrative Measures for Maintenance Funds of Residential Building Facilities and Equipment (Jian Jian [1998] No.213) promulgated by the Ministry of Construction.

The maintenance fund for units selling public houses is jointly raised by the units selling houses and the employees buying houses, and the ownership belongs to the purchaser, which is used for the maintenance of public parts and facilities of residential buildings.

According to the law, * * * refers to the main load-bearing structural parts of the house (including foundation, internal and external load-bearing walls, columns, beams, floors, roofs, etc.). ), outdoor walls, hallways, stairwells, corridors, etc.

The maintenance fund is used for the large and medium-sized repair, renewal and transformation of * * * old parts and * * * old equipment and facilities after the property warranty period expires.

When Party B transfers the ownership of the house, the balance maintenance fund will not be returned and will be transferred with the ownership of the house.

The charging standards of public maintenance funds vary from place to place. Take Beijing as an example:

Previously, Beijing paid the public maintenance fund at 2% of the total house price. The updated standards are: multi-storey residential buildings per square meter 100 yuan, high-rise buildings per square meter 200 yuan. This is because the construction and installation costs of different houses are different.
