I now wish to dispose of the property and I am concerned this will hold me back if I have to pay off the amount due now. I'd like to sell up and subsequently pay them back with the completion monies - is this practicable?

It would be wise to check with the property lawyer handling your Tiverton conveyancing but it may be possible to arrange for the arrears to be passed to the purchasers. The purchase price payable would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they assume. They would then deal with the outstanding monies following completion of the sale.
