The owners have rather pushy sellers who has suggested a exclusivity agreement with a down payment 6,000. Are such agreements promoted for Prestbury conveyancing transactions?
This form of contract is not the norm in Prestbury, conveyancers are often found to veer clients away from them as they detract from the primary focus, namely conveyancing 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 executed an exclusivity contract they will sell to you. They may be in contravention of the agreement if they receive a large enough financial inducement to do so because an aggrieved claimant with the benefit of a lockoutcontract will still be duty bound to establish consequential losses from the breach and these may not equate the financial upside that your vendor may gain by reneging on the agreement, however morally reprehensible it undoubtedly is.
