The owners have rather assertive vendors who has suggested a lock out contract with a deposit 6,000. Are such agreements sensible?
This type of arrangement is not the norm in Hedon, conveyancers will often try and steer clients away from them as they detract from focusing on the main conveyancing focus and if you end up losing your deposit then the lawyer is left exposed. Furthermore, there is no assurance that just because the vendor has signed a lock out contract they will complete the sale with you. They may be tempted to break the contract if they receive a big enough offer to do so because a wronged party with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not compare to the extra amount that your seller may secure by breaching the agreement, however morally condemnable the behaviour is.
