The owners have very brash sellers who has recommended a preliminary agreement with a non-refundable deposit two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
Exclusivity agreements are agreements binding a home owner and prospective buyer granting the buyer a ‘clear field’ to the sale of the property for a limited period of time. Essentially, a lock out agreement is a contract specifying that you will have a contract at a later date which is the contract for the actual sale. It tends to be used for buyer confidence though in some cases, the owner may enjoy an upside from such agreements as well. There are numerous positives and negatives to using an agreement but you need to check with your solicitor but note that it may result in incurring more in conveyancing charges. In light of this these contracts are unusual when it comes to conveyancing in Swaffham.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Swaffham
-
The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. 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. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
I have been advised by a number of selling agents in Swaffham to choose a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to offer your site ahead of alternative conveyancing organisations?
We refuse to give any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We found it would be just too difficult a fee as a client could think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
There are a number of properties in Swaffham on unadopted lanes. We are purchasing one such property. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of buying a residence on a privately owned road?
Swaffham conveyancing firms will be used to dealing homeson private. Your lawyer will review the Land Registry data to identify any rights or responsibilities. In many cases there is a management company (wholly owned by residents) that residents pay into for the upkeep of the road. Where there is one, the road will likely be maintained and look better than council maintained.
