We have rather brash vendors who has recommended a lock out agreement with a deposit of 5k. Are such arrangements appropriate for Hampton Hill conveyancing transactions?
This type of preliminary agreement is not the norm in Hampton Hill, conveyancers will often encourage clients away from them as they detract from focusing on the primary objective, namely conveyancing and if you end up losing your deposit then the lawyer at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no certainty that just because the proprietor has entered into an exclusivity contract they will sell to you. They may breach the agreement if they receive a big enough financial inducement to do so because an aggrieved buyer with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be legally obliged to show losses as a consequence of the breach and this may not compare to the financial upside that your seller may gain by breaking the agreement, no matter how morally reprehensible it undoubtedly is.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Hampton Hill I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hampton Hill suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
