We have very assertive sellers who has insisted on a lock out agreement with a deposit 10k. Are such arrangements recommended for Gaydon conveyancing transactions?

This type of preliminary agreement is unusual in Gaydon, conveyancers are not keen on them as they detract from focusing on the primary objective, namely conveyancing and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the solicitor is left exposed. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that just because the seller has executed an exclusivity contract they will sell to you. They may be motivated to break the agreement if they are offered sufficient incentive to do so because a wronged buyer with the benefit of a lockoutcontract will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not equate the financial benefit that your vendor may obtain by breaking the agreement, however morally condemnable the behaviour is.

Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
