The vendors of the property we are hoping to buy have appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Washwood Heath who has suggested a preliminary agreement with a payment two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?

There are two primary downsides with entering into any lock out contract (also termed a shut-out contract) is that it takes away the focus from moving forward with the conveyancing transaction itself, so unless it requires minimal or no negotiation then it could transpire to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not particularly popular by Washwood Heath conveyancing lawyers for this reason. The other main issue is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted buyer is very unlikely to secure injunctive relief to prohibit the owner selling to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of wasted charges and, in restricted situations, the additional payment of damages.
