The mortgage agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my 4 room flat is coming imminently. Are you able to propose a low cost conveyancing lawyer in Highbridge?

You are on the wrong site if you are seeking cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Highbridge. We can offer you cost effective conveyancing but we do not aim to advertise as being the cheapest. Avoid the trap of appointing companies offering £99 conveyancing in Highbridge. At best, in choosing a lawyer for cheap conveyancing, you will receive what you pay for and at worst it will result in you being stung for additional fees and still not receive the service expected.

We have very pushy vendors who has suggested a lock out agreement with a down payment 6,000. Are such contracts generally advanced for Highbridge conveyancing transactions?

There are a couple of primary drawbacks with signing a lock out contract (sometimes known as a shut-out contract) is that it diverts attention away from progressing with the conveyancing transaction itself, so in the absence of it needing minimal or no negotiation then it could turn out to be a hindrance. It is not promoted amongst Highbridge conveyancing solicitors as a result. The other main negative is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser is very unlikely to win injunctive relief to bar the owner selling to another buyer, so the only remedy available under the contract will be the reimbursement of abortive costs and, in limited scenarios, the extra payment of penalties.
