I have just appointed agents to market my garden apartment in Victoria Docks. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently had a half-yearly maintenance charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you clear the maintenance contribution as you normally would because all rents and service charges should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed 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.
