Baglan conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes often involves the buyer’s lawyer sending questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to respond to such questions most will be willing to do so. They are entitled to levy a reasonable charge for answering questions or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the information that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some cases it exceeds £800. The management information fee levied by the landlord must be accompanied by a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration charges, without which the invoice is technically not due. Reality however dictates that you have no option but to pay whatever is requested of you should you wish to sell the property.
