The owners have very brash vendors who has recommended a exclusivity agreement with a payment two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
This kind of contract is unusual in Trowbridge, conveyancers are not keen on them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the solicitor is left exposed. In addition, there is no assurance that just because the vendor has entered into an exclusivity contract they will complete the sale with you. They may breach the agreement if they receive sufficient incentive to do so because a wronged buyer with the benefit of a exclusivity agreement will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not compare to the financial benefit that your seller may secure by breaking the contract, however morally shameful the behaviour is.

I am purchasing a new build house in Trowbridge with a loan from Barclays . The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
