My friend's mother is a conveyancing practitioner. I hope that I can be offered preferential fee for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of costs should I be paying for conveyancing in Wantage?

We have rather brash sellers who has suggested a preliminary agreement with a deposit two thousand pounds. Are such agreements the norm for Wantage conveyancing transactions?
This type of preliminary agreement is unusual in Wantage, conveyancers are not keen on them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up losing your deposit then the solicitor at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the proprietor has executed an exclusivity contract they will complete the sale with you. They may breach the contract if they receive sufficient offer to do so because a wronged party with the benefit of a exclusivity agreement will still be obliged establish consequential losses from the breach and these may not compare to the extra amount that your vendor may obtain by breaking the agreement, however morally unworthy the behaviour is.
It is 10 years ago since I acquired my property in Wantage. Conveyancing solicitors have just been retained on the sale but I can't track down the title deeds. Is this a problem?
You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be retained by the lender or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Wantage relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.
