I have just appointed agents to market my ground floor flat in Wormwood Scrubs. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, but I have just received a half-yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?

It best that you clear the service charge as usual as all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice 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.
