Being a leasehold owner I am liable for a maintenance contribution for my first floor flat in Kibworth Beauchamp. Due to losing my job and other issues I slipped into arrears with remittance. The management company agreed a settlement schedule but there is still around £1750 left to be paid.
I now wish to dispose of the property and I am concerned this can threaten to derail the sale if I have to discharge the amount due first. I'd like to sell up and then discharge the arrears from the proceeds - is this possible?
Do clarify with the property lawyer undertaking your Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing but one option might be to arrange for the outstanding amount to be transferred to the purchasers. The sale price due would be reduced to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They could then deal with the arrears after completion of the purchase.
