I’m about to sell my ground floor apartment in Dukinfield. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, but I have recently had a quarterly service charge invoice – what should I do?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should discharge the service charge as you normally would because all rents and maintenance payments will be allotted 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 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
