I have just started marketing my ground floor flat in Newtown. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have just had a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
It best that you discharge the invoice as you normally would given that all rents and maintenance charges should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
