This type of contract is not the norm in Buckden, conveyancers are often found to direct clients away from them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the solicitor at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no guarantee that just because the seller has executed a lock out agreement they will complete the sale with you. They may be tempted to break the contract if they are offered sufficient offer to do so because a wronged purchaser with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be obliged establish consequential losses from the breach and this may not compare to the financial upside that your seller may gain by breaking the agreement, no matter how morally shameful it undoubtedly is.
