The owners of the house we are looking to purchase have instructed a conveyancing solicitor in Costessey who has suggested a preliminary contract with a down payment two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
This kind of contract isn't common in Costessey, conveyancers will often sway clients away from them as they detract from the primary focus, namely conveyancing and if you end up losing your deposit then the lawyer at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no certainty that just because the seller has executed a lock out agreement they will sell to you. They may be inclined to break the contract if they are offered a large enough offer to do so because an aggrieved claimant with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be obliged establish consequential losses from the breach and this may not equalise the financial upside that your vendor may obtain by breaching the agreement, however morally shameful it undoubtedly is.
