Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my ground floor apartment in Lansbury. Conveyancing has not commenced, however I have just received a quarterly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as normal given that all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be apportioned 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 management companies 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. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
