I’m about to sell my 2 bed flat in Frodsham. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have just had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is pay the maintenance contribution as you normally would given that all ground rent and service charges should be allotted 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 subsequent invoice date. Most management companies 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I acquired a 2 bed flat in Frodsham, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding properties in Frodsham with an extended lease are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2100

With just 75 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.

My husband and I are selling a Frodsham flat we inherited six years ago in 2012. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing knowledge and, now retired, wish to carry out my own legal work.

Mortgage requirements to conveyancing practitioners from all mainstream lenders state that If the vendor does not have legal representation the borrower's lawyers should check whether the bank needs to be notified so that a decision can be reached as to whether or not they are prepared to proceed.
