I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed flat in Shrewton. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as normal as all rents and maintenance invoices will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed 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 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.
