We have rather brash sellers who has recommended a lock out agreement with a non-refundable deposit 10k. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
Exclusivity contracts are contracts between a property vendor and prospective acquirer granting the buyer a ‘clear field’ to the sale of the premises for a limited period of time. Essentially, an exclusivity is a document stating that you should receive a contract at a later date which is the main conveyancing contract. It is generally utilised for buyer confidence though in many situations, the vendor may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are many positives and negatives to using them but you need to check with your conveyancer but beware that it may result in incurring more in conveyancing charges. In light of this these contracts are unusual in relation to conveyancing in Toton.

Have purchased a a detached house in Toton , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my proprietorship? My Toton conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are dealt with.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Toton registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration is effected after the buyer has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not always primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
What are the frequently found problems that you come across in leases for Toton properties?
There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Toton. All leases are unique and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain sections are erroneous. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:
-
A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the property Clauses dealing with recovering service charges for expenditure on the building or common parts.
You may have a problem when selling your property if you have a defective lease primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. Santander, Norwich and Peterborough Building Society, and TSB all have very detailed requirements when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease is problematic they may refuse to grant the mortgage, forcing the buyer to withdraw.

Is there a share of the freehold? It would be wise to find out as much as you can about the company managing the block as they will either make your living at the property much simpler or uncomfortable. As the proprietor of a leasehold property you will be in the clutches of the managing agents from a financial perspective and when it comes to practical matters such as the tidiness of the communal areas. Enquire of other people what they think of their service. On a final note, find out the dates that you are obliged pay the maintenance charge to the managing agents and precisely how they are spending that money. Are there any major works in the near future that could increase the maintenance fees?
