We have rather assertive vendors who has suggested a lock out agreement with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
This type of arrangement is unusual in Battlesbridge, conveyancers will often try and steer clients away from them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the solicitor is left exposed. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the owner has entered into a lock out contract they will sell to you. They may be in contravention of the contract if they receive a large enough financial inducement to do so because an aggrieved claimant with the benefit of a exclusivity agreement will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not equate the financial upside that your vendor may gain by breaching the contract, however morally condemnable that may be.
