I’m about to sell my 2 bed apartment in Camden. Conveyancing has not commenced, however I have just had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the maintenance contribution as usual given that all rents and maintenance charges will be apportioned on completion, 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 managing agents 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.
