We have very pushy vendors who has suggested a preliminary contract with a down payment 10k. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
Lock out agreements are agreements binding a home owner and prospective buyer granting the buyer a ‘clear field’ to the sale of the premises for a set period of time. Essentially, a lock out is a document specifying that you should be issued with a contract at a later date which is the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be utilised for buyer assurance though in some cases, the owner may enjoy an upside from such agreements as well. There are numerous positives and negatives to using them but you need to check with your conveyancer but beware that it may end up costing you more in conveyancing charges. In light of this these agreements are avoided when it comes to conveyancing in Chaddesden.
How does conveyancing in Chaddesden differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Chaddesden approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because builders in Chaddesden tend to purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Chaddesden or who has acted in the same development.
