The owners have very pushy sellers who has insisted on a lock out agreement with a non-refundable deposit 6,000. Are such agreements sensible?

There are a couple of primary drawbacks with signing a lock out contract (sometimes known as a no-shop agreement) is that it takes away the focus from progressing with the conveyancing process, so in the absence of it needing minimal or no negotiation then it may transpire to be unhelpful. It is not particularly popular by Barrow upon Humber conveyancing practitioners as a result. The other main issue is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer is very unlikely to be issued with injunctive relief to prohibit the vendor completing the sale to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy available under the contract will be the reimbursement of wasted charges and, in rare scenarios, the extra payment of penalties.

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently at the moment.
