Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase today by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000 which gives you the rights to purchase within a given timeframe. The exclusivity fee is returned to you upon successful completion of the property.
A processing fee of £200 is required in order to draw up an exclusive legally binding contract between the buyer and seller. This gives the buyer exclusive rights to purchase within a pre-agreed timeframe.
Paying this fee ensures that the seller takes their property off the market and reserves it exclusively for you, therefore eliminating the risk of gazumping and aborted costs.
