The vendors of the home we are looking to purchase hired a conveyancing firm in Noak Hill who has insisted on a preliminary agreement with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
This kind of contract isn't common in Noak Hill, conveyancers are often found to veer clients away from them as they detract from focusing on the primary focus, namely conveyancing and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the lawyer is left exposed. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that just because the owner has entered into a lock out contract they will complete the sale with you. They may be tempted to break the contract if they receive a large enough offer to do so because an aggrieved buyer with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be obliged show losses as a consequence of the breach and this may not equate the extra amount that the owner may gain by breaching the agreement, no matter how morally shameful it undoubtedly is.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Noak Hill is the location of the property. Can you offer any assistance?

Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Noak Hill you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
