Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for friction between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property.

Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the vendor’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be invited to collect the keys from the Estate Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.

I have just started marketing my ground floor flat in Rise Park. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have just received a yearly service charge invoice – Do I pay up?

The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as usual because all rents and maintenance payments should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed 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 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.
