I have just started marketing my ground floor flat in Ferndown. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have recently received a quarterly service charge demand – Do I pay up?
The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as you normally would because all ground rent and maintenance charges will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Co-operative started with Co-operative?
It is standard to have concerns where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Ferndown conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the specifics of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of buyers will apply for the mortgage with Co-operative and pay for the survey and only if it was satisfactory would they request their solicitor to proceed with the conveyancing in Ferndown.
