We expect to complete the disposal of our £475,000 flat in Mirfield next Friday. The management company has quoted £384 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years statements of service charge. Is the landlord entitled to charge such fees for a leasehold conveyance in Mirfield?
Mirfield conveyancing on leasehold flats normally necessitates the buyer’s conveyancer submitting questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to address such questions the majority will be content to do so. They may charge a reasonable charge for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average costs for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it exceeds £800. The administration charge invoiced by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of rights and obligations in respect of administration charges, without which the charge is not strictly payable. In reality you have little choice but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to sell the property.
