I have just appointed agents to market my ground floor flat in Rogerstone.Conveyancing has not commenced but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?
It best that you clear the service charge as usual because all rents and maintenance payments should be apportionedon completion, 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
