I have just appointed agents to market my basement apartment in Wilmslow. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, but I have recently had a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as usual because all rents and service invoices should be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice 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.
