We have very brash sellers who has insisted on a preliminary agreement with a down payment of 5k. Are such contracts recommended for Lower Sunbury conveyancing transactions?
This form of agreement is not the norm in Lower Sunbury, conveyancers are often inclined to direct clients away from them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the lawyer is left exposed. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the vendor has signed a lock out agreement they will sell to you. They may breach the contract if they are offered sufficient offer to do so because an aggrieved claimant with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be duty bound to establish consequential losses from the breach and these may not compare to the extra amount that your vendor may secure by breaking the agreement, however morally condemnable the behaviour is.

four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Lower Sunbury took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
