I have just appointed agents to market my garden apartment in Crickhowell. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have just had a yearly service charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you clear the service charge as usual because all ground rent and maintenance invoices will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed 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 until 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
