Last June I purchased a leasehold flat in Prudhoe. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?

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. However, 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 be sure 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).

I am the registered owner of a 1st floor flat in Prudhoe, conveyancing formalities finalised April 1996. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable flats in Prudhoe with an extended lease are worth £195,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease ceases on 21st October 2087

With only 63 years unexpired the likely cost is going to range between £16,200 and £18,600 as well as costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

Being a leasehold owner I am liable for a maintenance contribution for my appartment in Prudhoe. Due to losing my job and other issues I fell behind with payments. I negotiated a settlement plan but there is still a couple of currently outstanding.

I now wish to dispose of the property and I am worried this can jeopardize the sale if I have to settle the arrears first. Do I have to settle before - is this possible?

You should check with the conveyancer dealing with your Prudhoe conveyancing but it might be possible to arrange for the debt to be passed to the buyers. The purchase price they pay would be reduced to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They could then deal with the fees once they are the owners.
