    • Some Chantry leases require Licence to Assign from the landlord.

You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the buyers or their lawyers. Many freeholders or Management Companies in Chantry charge for supplying management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should discover the actual amount of the charges. The management pack can be applied for on or before finding a buyer, thus reducing delays. The average time it takes to receive management information is three weeks.
