What are the advantages and disadvantages of setting up an owners' committee?
The city's industrial Committee! Since I founded the first owners' committee in China on 9 1, the owners' committee has gone through 15 years with the development of the real estate industry in China. The name of owners' committee is no longer unfamiliar and excluded. Owners' committee has played an active role in safeguarding owners' rights and interests and implementing owners' autonomy, and made some efforts to build a harmonious community and society. But so far, the establishment rate of owners' committees in all residential areas in China is less than 40%, and few owners' committees can really play a role. Look at the reasons, except that the owners' committee didn't really straighten out the relationship between owners, developers and property management companies, the owners' committee didn't really understand the needs of community owners for management and services, didn't seriously perform its duties, didn't have a strong sense of communication with community owners, didn't understand the impact of property management products on buildings and their facilities and equipment, and didn't keep learning in the big situation of a harmonious society, which is an important reason why it can't reflect its own value. In the past, the contradiction between community owners and property management companies has been transformed into the contradiction between community owners and owners' committees. The credibility of owners' committee is declining, and the contradiction between community owners and owners' committee is escalating. I think; At present, the main problems existing in the owners' committee lie in the looseness of organization, subjectivity and arbitrariness, blindness of proposal, uncertainty of responsibility and infinity of power. The owners' committee shall be composed of all owners, and the executive body of the owners' congress elected through democratic elections shall gain the trust of all owners. In fact, community owners do not know the members of the owners' committee, and many times elections are just a formality. The establishment of more owners' committees begins with safeguarding rights! Because they feel that their rights and interests have been damaged in the process of buying and using houses, when they are in a weak position in the process of actively coordinating with developers or property management companies and cannot achieve their goals, or when they know that the addition and reconstruction around the community will have an impact on their community life and property appreciation, some owners with opposing emotions first become activists in setting up owners' committees. However, regardless of the results of their establishment, we can see that these owners who actively participated in the establishment of the owners' committee first set out from the perspective of safeguarding their own rights and interests. Narrow consciousness determines the starting point of participation. From the very beginning, the owners' committee is considering how to safeguard rights, instead of building a harmonious, comfortable and civilized community through the concerted efforts of all the owners of the community, let alone making the property value-added, preserved and always in good condition through efficient and professional property management companies. As the owners' committee elected by all the owners of the community, it must be responsible for all the owners of the community, and everything should be considered from the perspective of the interests of all the owners of the community, because the responsibilities of the owners' committee include the trust, sincerity, dependence and expectation of all the owners of the community. Therefore, the owners' committee should ensure that all resolutions are fair and transparent, dare to face the doubts of all owners of the community and society, and all actions should ensure the rights and interests of all owners of the community. The sense of responsibility, love, credibility, transparency, sense of justice, leadership, innovation and communication skills of the owners' committee are very important, and more importantly; The owners' committee should have the learning ability and know how to create value for others, which is an expectation for all owners of the community. In order to ensure the comfortable life and property value of all owners in the community, the owners' committee must also learn the professional knowledge of property management and how to extend the service life of buildings and ancillary facilities and equipment through professional property management. Learn how to perform the duties of the owners' committee on behalf of all owners in the community; Learn the important matters needing attention in the bidding process of property management; Understand the management characteristics and service essence of property management and how to choose the best management service provider in the fierce market competition; Learn how to cooperate, supervise and dismiss property management companies; Understand the composition of property management fees and the factors affecting the effect of property management; Learn the time sequence planning of property management and the annual budget of property management fees; Learn how to use housing maintenance fund and large equipment maintenance reserve fund; Learn how to continue to raise large-scale equipment maintenance reserve fund and the value-added of large-scale equipment maintenance reserve fund; Learn the responsibilities, rights and obligations between owners, owners' committees and property management companies; Learn how to raise funds for the secondary development of real estate to ensure that the community is always in good condition during the property rights period. Because the owners' committee has no concept about the products of property management and the real function of property management; Because the owners' committee doesn't understand, its duty is only to have the right to propose major issues within its jurisdiction, but not to make decisions. At present, the owners of most residential quarters have not changed the living concept and culture of public houses in the past, and their enthusiasm for participating in public affairs management and democratic voting in residential quarters is not high. Many owners only pay attention to whether the property management fees that are closely related to them have changed. Most owners often "don't care beforehand, but are very enthusiastic afterwards" when voting on major events related to residential property management. In addition, many residential areas are now implementing non-voting, which is considered as the default. In this way, the power of the owners' Committee will be great. A proposal of the owners' committee can basically be passed, and many proposals of the owners' committee already have certain decision-making power. However, the power of the owners' committee is still spreading. Many times, the owners' committee has partially or completely owned the decision-making power of the community. Because of the expansion of the power of the owners' committee, some strange things have happened in some communities. The owners' committee uses the official seal to sign the residential project contract without authorization; Take the catering invoice for eating, drinking and socializing to the property management company for reimbursement; Turn a deaf ear to the loss of property management fees; In the process of hiring property management companies to collect benefits; Require the property management company to subcontract some management or service contents to "acquaintances"; Ignoring the service subcontractors and subcontracting prices of property management companies; Threatening property management companies at will by reducing property management fees or listing various reasons to hire property management companies; Accept the invitation of the property management company to go on holiday; Swallow up community operating income; Arrange family members to work in the property management company; Ask the property management company to decorate the house for themselves; Misappropriation of funds from the owners' committee to canvass votes and so on. As a result, the owners' committee with both power and salary has become a beacon in some people's eyes. China property management has gone through more than 20 years with the development of housing marketization. When we are rejoicing in the continuous improvement and upgrading of housing conditions, we should see; Owners, including me, are trying to find a comfortable life, and the cost and price of living (sometimes physical and mental harm) are extremely huge. At present, owners and owners' committees change with the changes of developers and property management companies, and argue with the requirements of developers and property management companies. At present, in order to pursue the absolute integrity of their own rights and interests, owners are trying to reduce expenses as little as possible and hope to get as many free services as possible, which is the fundamental obstacle to the bottleneck of property management in China. Products with property management, like other products, can be improved, upgraded and upgraded according to customers' needs in a highly competitive market. This is also the time when our owners and owners' committees have a deep understanding of property management, public property rights, property management, neighborhood watch and property preservation and appreciation. Owners Committee is responsible for promoting the reform, popularization and maturity of property management in China.
