We have rather brash sellers who has recommended a lock out contract with a down payment 6,000. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
Exclusivity contracts are contracts between a home vendor and prospective acquirer giving the buyer exclusive rights to purchase the premises within an agreed time frame. For all intents and purposes, a lock out is a document stating that you should have a contract at a later time which is the contract for the actual sale. It tends to be used for buyer protection though in many situations, the vendor may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are numerous pros and cons to having an agreement but you need to check with your solicitor but note that it may result in incurring more in conveyancing fees. In light of these reasons these agreements are not popular in relation to conveyancing in Coombe.

I have just appointed agents to market my basement flat in Coombe. Conveyancing has not commenced, however I have just received a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should clear the service charge as you normally would given that all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage 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 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. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
