I have just started marketing my garden flat in Wooburn Green. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as usual as all ground rent and maintenance payments should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until 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.
