It best that you discharge the service charge as normal given that all ground rent and maintenance invoices will be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

My wife and I have just had an offer accepted on a apartment and had meeting on Wednesday with HSBC for the mortgage. They advised me that when it comes to selecting a solicitor that if they are not on their approved list of property lawyers then we will have to pay out an additional fee of about two hundred pounds. This is is due to the fact that they will then have to select a property lawyer to act on their behalf in addition to the one we appoint for ourselves and we will be on the hook for their costs. I have asked HSBC to send me with a list so I can request quotes only from their approved conveyancers but was told that I need to check with each individual lawyer to see if they are on the panel. Is there a simple way of finding out who is on a lender panel?

Ask HSBC what their panel criteria is for a solicitor.Then ask the property lawyer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on mortgages for HSBC historically. Where the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with HSBC.
