I pay a maintenance fee for my flat in Lee On The Solent. As a result of personal circumstances I slipped into arrears with payments. I negotiated a clearance plan but there remains a couple of outstanding as of today.
I now wish to dispose of the property and I am worried this can threaten to derail the sale if I have to pay off the amount due in advance. I'd like to sell up and subsequently pay them back with the completion monies - is this practicable?
It would be wise to clarify with the lawyer dealing with your Lee On The Solent conveyancing but one option might be to agree for the debt to be attributed to the purchasers. The contractual price payable would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They could then discharge the outstanding monies post completion of the sale.
