There are a couple of main downsides with signing a lock out contract (also termed a shut-out contract) is that it can distract from progressing with the conveyancing transaction itself, so in the absence of it needing limited or no negotiation then it could turn out to be a cause of frustration and delay.

A supplemental negative is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted buyer is not likely to be issued with injunctive relief to stop the vendor selling to another buyer, so the only remedy open via the contract will be the recovery of abortive costs and, in rare circumstances, the extra payment of penalties.
