The sellers of the house we are purchasing are using a conveyancing firm in Exmouth who has insisted on a exclusivity contract with a down payment 10k. Are such arrangements the norm for Exmouth conveyancing transactions?
Exclusivity agreements are contracts between a property seller and purchaser granting the buyer the sole right to the sale of the property within a prescribed time frame. For all intents and purposes, an exclusivity is a document specifying that you should be issued with a contract at a later time being the contract for the actual sale. It tends to be utilised for buyer confidence though in many situations, the owner may enjoy an upside from such agreements as well. There are various positives and negatives to having an agreement but you need to check with your conveyancer but beware that it may end up incurring more in conveyancing fees. In light of this these contracts are unusual in relation to conveyancing in Exmouth.

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Please supply a car parking plan.

Frank (my husband) and I may need to rent out our Exmouth basement flat for a while due to a career opportunity. We used a Exmouth conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have closed and we did not think at the time seek any advice as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
Notwithstanding that your last Exmouth conveyancing lawyer is no longer available you can check your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the premises. The rule is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you need to obtain consent from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. This means that you cannot sublet without first obtaining consent. The consent should not be unreasonably turned down. If your lease prohibits you from letting out the property you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.
