New house owner here. My developer said I can collect the keys now, should have been a few months ago, but delayed I believe because of MCO. In the email I received they ask me to settle any outstanding charge (TnB, Bill Air register, etc) before collect house key, this done

But the second paragraph asks me to pay maintenance fee too (to the JMB) starting April 2020, but I believe nobody moved in yet that time. I see many questions on "Why and What Maintenance Fee", but couldn't find "When I need to start paying maintenance fee" questions online.

Called the JMB they said a few are facing this problem and they are discussing with the developer for solutions. How about the others, do you guys pay before or after u get the key. TQ.
