We have very brash vendors who has suggested a exclusivity contract with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Are such contracts promoted for Marston Moretaine conveyancing transactions?

There are two primary downsides with entering into any lock out agreement (occasionally termed a shut-out contract) is that it takes away the focus from progressing with the conveyancing process, so unless it requires limited or no negotiation then it could transpire to be a hindrance. It is not promoted by Marston Moretaine conveyancing practitioners for this reason. The other main negative is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted purchaser should not expect to win injunctive relief to bar the vendor disposing of the property to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy available under the contract will be the reimbursement of wasted charges and, in restricted situations, the additional payment of damages.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
