As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

I've recently bought a leasehold flat in Mickleover. Am I liable to pay service charges relating to a period prior to my ownership?

In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

Leasehold Conveyancing in Mickleover - Sample of Queries before buying

    What restrictions are contained in the Mickleover Lease? The majority of Mickleover leasehold apartments will be liable to pay a service charge for the upkeep of the building levied on behalf of the freeholder. Where you buy the apartment you will have to pay this contribution, usually quarterly during the year. This can vary from two or three hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for large purpose-built blocks. There will also be a rentcharge to be met yearly, ordinarily this is not a significant sum, say about £50-£100 but you need to check it because on occasion it could be prohibitively expensive. Where a Mickleover lease has fewer than 80 years it will have adverse implications on the marketability of the property. Check with your mortgage company that they are content with remaining years on the lease. A short lease means that you will probably require a lease extension at some point and it is worth finding out what this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will be required to have owned the premises for 24 months before you are eligible to exercise a lease extension.
