I have been recommended by a couple of local selling agents in Henbury to get a quote from a solicitor on your site. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to promote your site rather than another?

We don’t make any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers our way.

Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement apartment in Henbury. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have just received a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as normal as all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

Henbury Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Questions you should consider before Purchasing

    How many of the leaseholders are in arrears for their service charge payments? How much is the maintenance charge and ground rent on the apartment? If a Henbury lease has fewer than 80 years it will affect the value of the flat. It is worth checking with your bank that they are willing to go ahead with the loan given the lease term. A short lease means that you will almost definitely require a lease extension sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this will be. For most Henburylease extensions you will be required to have been the owner of the residence for 24 months in order to be eligible to extend the lease.
