We are in the throes of selling our flat in Ystalyfera. Conveyancing is fine but we have been asked to pay an extortionate amount by the managing agents. So far we have issued a cheque for £225 for a leasehold management information and then another £117.20 for answers to questions raised by the buyers lawyer.
