I have just appointed agents to market my basement flat in Oswaldtwistle. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have just had a yearly service charge demand – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is clear the maintenance contribution as usual because all rents and maintenance payments should be apportioned 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 subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless 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.
