Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my ground floor apartment in Worcester. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently had a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?
The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as usual because all ground rent and service charges will be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed 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.
