Completion is due on the sale of our £300,000 maisonette in Cheshunt next week. The management company has quoted £408 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Cheshunt?

Cheshunt conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes ordinarily results in fees being levied by managing agents :

    Addressing pre-exchange questions Where consent is required before sale in Cheshunt Supplying insurance information Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your lawyer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Cheshunt leasehold premises is £350. For Cheshunt conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved.
