The owners have rather assertive vendors who has recommended a exclusivity agreement with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Are such agreements sensible?
There are a couple of main drawbacks with executing a lock out agreement (occasionally known as a no-shop agreement) is that it can distract from making progress with the conveyancing work, so unless it requires limited or no negotiation then it could transpire to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not particularly popular by Chiseldon conveyancing solicitors as a result. The other main negative is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted buyer is not likely to obtain injunctive relief to prevent the owner selling to another buyer, so the only remedy open via the agreement will be the reimbursement of wasted charges and, in restricted situations, the additional payment of damages.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Chiseldon I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Chiseldon in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
