We have rather brash sellers who has recommended a preliminary contract with a non-refundable deposit of 5k. Are such agreements generally advanced for Bollington conveyancing transactions?
There are two primary downsides with executing a lock out contract (occasionally referred to as an exclusivity agreement) is that it diverts attention away from progressing with the conveyancing work, so unless it requires little or no negotiation then it could turn out to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not strongly advocated by Bollington conveyancing solicitors as a result. A supplemental concern is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser is very unlikely to be granted an injunction to prohibit the owner disposing of the property to another buyer, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of wasted costs and, in rare situations, the additional payment of penalties.

Having legally committed yourself to purchase you should hire the services of a conveyancing lawyer soon as you now have a tight a fixed date to complete the purchase.

I'm the single recipient of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Bollington. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in February. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in February. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this provision primarily exists to pick up on subsales or the flipping of properties.
I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Bollington. My mortgage broker suggested a solicitor. I paid an advanced payment of £200. Soon after, the property lawyer called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Aldermore panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
