There are a couple of primary concerns with entering into any lock out agreement (occasionally referred to as a shut-out contract) is that it diverts attention away from progressing with the conveyancing work, so unless it requires little or no negotiation then it may turn out to be a hindrance. It is not particularly popular by Aberdare conveyancing lawyers for this reason. A further concern is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser is not likely to obtain injunctive relief to prevent the seller completing the sale to a third party, so the only remedy open via the agreement will be the recovery of wasted charges and, in rare scenarios, the extra payment of penalties.
