[Direct answer]In the Beijing area, the sealed-up houses can, in principle, still be used and rented out by the right holders or with the court's permission during the sealing-up period, but the sealing-up restricts the effectiveness of disposal, and the rent and other income shall be subject to enforcement restrictions. According to the "Supreme People's Court's Regulations on Sealing-up, Seizure, and Freezing of Property in Civil Enforcement of the People's Court" (amended in 2020), the purpose of sealing-up is to ensure enforcement and restrict the debtor from disposing of property, but it does not necessarily prohibit its use. For the income generated by the property, the people's court has the right to take measures such as withholding and extracting it according to law. That is to say, the sealed-up houses do not necessarily cannot be rented out because of the sealing-up, but the debtor is not allowed to transfer, mortgage or dispose of them in other ways, nor can he use the rent to resist the court's enforcement. The court may, upon application, withhold and extract the rent for the purpose of paying off the debt. If the debtor transfers, conceals property or evades enforcement by renting out and collecting rent, he may be held legally accountable. The lessee should verify the sealing-up and ownership status of the house to prevent rental risks.

I. Problem Background and Typical Scenarios

After the house is sealed up, whether it can continue to be rented out is a concern for both the creditor and the person subject to enforcement. Typical situations include: the person subject to enforcement continues to rent out the house and collect rent to increase their income; the lessee signs a lease contract without knowing that the house will be auctioned and faces eviction; the creditor wants to directly withdraw the rent to repay the debt; the person subject to enforcement transfers the property in disguise by charging low rent for a long time or collecting rent in advance in a lump sum. There are many disputes involving housing leases and enforcement in Beijing, and the order of ownership, sealing up, and lease relationships directly affects the rights and interests of all parties.

II. Key points of contention

First, does the seizure affect the use and rental of the house? Second, what is the legal effect of the lease contract signed after the seizure, and can it resist the auction and enforcement? Third, can the rent be enforced as a fruit of the property, and how to enforce it? Fourth, what responsibilities might be incurred if the lessee evades enforcement by renting out the property? Fifth, how can the lessee verify the status of the house's seizure and prevent risks? Only by clarifying these issues can we correctly assess the rights and obligations of all parties involved.

III. Professional analysis by Henglue Lawyers

Based on Henglu Lawyer's practical experience in handling execution and real estate cases, the key points can be summarized as follows. Firstly, the attachment restricts the disposition of the property, not its use: the attached property can continue to be used, and renting it out is generally not prohibited by default, but the debtor is not allowed to transfer or mortgage it, nor to obstruct the execution. Secondly, leasing may affect the auction but does not necessarily preclude execution: generally, if the attachment precedes the lease and the lease is established after the attachment, the lease cannot resist the execution, and the court may auction the property with the lease in place or require the tenant to vacate it according to law. If the lease was legally established and occupied before the attachment, it may be protected, and the specific circumstances need to be considered. Thirdly, the rental income should be included in the execution: the rental income from the leased property belongs to the attachment proceeds, and the court may, upon request, withhold or withdraw it and use it directly to repay the debt. Practical tips: The debtor should not evade execution by renting out the property or collecting rent in advance, otherwise they may be held accountable; the lessee should check the real estate registration and attachment information before signing the contract, and the contract should clearly specify the ownership and attachment risks to avoid suffering losses due to the disposal of the property.

5. Henglu Law Firm's Reminder

Firstly, the seizure and restriction of disposition do not necessarily prohibit the use and lease of the property. Secondly, if the seizure precedes the lease, it usually cannot be used to resist enforcement. Thirdly, the rent is considered a fruit of the property and can be withheld and used to repay debts. Fourthly, tenants who evade enforcement by means of low-price long-term leases and prepaid rents may be held accountable. Fifthly, tenants must verify the seizure and ownership before signing a contract to avoid falling into traps.

VI. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can the house that has been sealed off still be rented out to others?

The seizure restricts the disposition of the property, but does not necessarily prohibit its use. The seized house can generally still be rented out, but the debtor is not allowed to transfer or mortgage it, nor can he use the rental income to resist the enforcement. The court may, upon request, withhold and withdraw the rental income to pay off the debt.

Q2: Is the lease contract signed after the seizure still valid?

The contract itself is generally valid, but it is usually not enforceable against the applicant for enforcement and the auction transferee. If the seizure precedes the lease, the court may auction the property with the lease in place or require the lessee to vacate the premises. The specific legal effect of this arrangement depends on the timing of the contract signing and the commencement of possession.

Q3: Who owns the rent from the sealed-up house?

The rent is the fruit of the seized property and still belongs to the owner of the house. However, the people's court has the right to take measures such as detention and withdrawal to use it to pay off debts according to law. The applicant for enforcement can actively apply for the enforcement of the rent.

Q4: What should a lessee do if they don't know that the house has been sealed up by the court?

Before signing the contract, you should check the real estate registration and seizure information, and stipulate in the contract the provisions for handling ownership defects and seizure risks. If you suffer losses due to the disposal of the house, you can claim corresponding responsibilities from the lessor in accordance with the contract or legal provisions.

Q5: What will happen if a landlord evades the execution of a court order by renting out their property?

If the debtor transfers or hides assets to evade enforcement by means of low-price long-term leases, one-time advance payment of rent, etc., the court may take measures in accordance with the law. If the circumstances are serious, the debtor may be held legally responsible for refusing to perform the judgment, and the relevant evidence shall be properly preserved.
