We have rather assertive sellers who has suggested a preliminary contract with a payment 10k. Are such agreements generally advanced for Burslem conveyancing transactions?
There are two main concerns with entering into any lock out contract (sometimes known as a no-shop agreement) is that it diverts attention away from making progress with the conveyancing process, so unless it requires little or no negotiation then it may transpire to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not particularly popular by Burslem conveyancing lawyers for this reason. A supplemental issue is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer is not likely to be granted injunctive relief to stop the seller completing the sale to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy open via the contract will be the reimbursement of wasted costs and, in rare circumstances, the extra payment of penalties.

In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business offices in Burslem and how can you help?
The 1954 Act gives security of tenure to business lessees, granting the dueness to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.
