The vendors of the home we are hoping to buy are using a conveyancing firm in Dorchester On Thames who has insisted on a exclusivity contract with a down payment two thousand pounds. Are such arrangements generally advanced for Dorchester On Thames conveyancing transactions?
There are a couple of main concerns with entering into any lock out agreement (occasionally referred to as an exclusivity agreement) is that it takes away the focus from making progress with the conveyancing work, so in the absence of it needing limited or no negotiation then it may turn out to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not strongly advocated by Dorchester On Thames conveyancing solicitors for this reason. The other main issue is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser should not expect to be issued with an injunctive ruling by a court to bar the owner selling to another buyer, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of abortive costs and, in restricted scenarios, the additional payment of penalties.
