The owners of the house we are looking to purchase have appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Cann Hall who has insisted on a exclusivity agreement with a non-refundable deposit two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
Exclusivity contracts are contracts binding a property owner and prospective acquirer giving the buyer the sole right to purchase the property within an agreed time frame. For all intents and purposes, an exclusivity agreement is a contract stating that you will be issued with a contract at a later time which is the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be utilised for buyer confidence though in many situations, the owner may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are numerous positives and negatives to using an agreement but you need to check with your conveyancer but note that it may result in incurring more in conveyancing charges. In light of this these agreements are unusual when it comes to conveyancing in Cann Hall.
