I have just started marketing my basement apartment in Wingate. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have just received a yearly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you clear the invoice as normal given that all ground rent and maintenance payments will be apportioned on 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 managing agents 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.
