There are a couple of main downsides with signing a lock out agreement (also referred to as a shut-out contract) is that it diverts attention away from moving forward with the conveyancing process, so in the absence of it needing limited or no negotiation then it could turn out to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not promoted amongst Shipston on Stour conveyancing solicitors for this reason. The other main issue is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted purchaser is not likely to secure an injunctive ruling by a court to bar the owner disposing of the property to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of abortive charges and, in rare scenarios, the additional payment of damages.
