Completion is due on the sale of our £350,000 apartment in Shropshire next Tuesday. The freeholder has quoted £360 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and previous years statements of service charge.

Shropshire conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes typically results in administration charges levied by freeholders :

    Addressing conveyancing due diligence enquiries Where consent is required before sale in Shropshire Copies of the building insurance and schedule Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your solicitor will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Shropshire leasehold property is £350. For Shropshire conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are obliged to provide the information.
