We investigate the dynamical fixed points of the zero temperature Glauber dynamics in Ising-like models. The stability analysis of the fixed points in the mean field calculation shows the existence of an exponent that depends on the coordination number $z$ in the Ising model. For the generalised voter model, a phase diagram is obtained based on this study. Numerical results for the Ising model for both the mean field case and short ranged models on lattices with different values of $z$ are also obtained. A related study is the behaviour of the exit probability $E(x_0)$, defined as the probability that a configuration ends up with all spins up starting with $x_0$ fraction of up spins. An interesting result is $E(x_0) = x_0$ in the mean field approximation when $z=2$, which is consistent with the conserved magnetisation in the system. For larger values of $z$, $E(x_0)$ shows the usual finite size dependent non linear behaviour both in the mean field model and in Ising model with nearest neighbour interaction on different two dimensional lattices. For such a behaviour, a data collapse of $E(x_0)$ is obtained using $y = \frac{ (x_0 - x_c)}{ x_c}L^{ 1/\nu}$ as the scaling variable and $f(y)=\frac{ 1+\tanh(\lambda y)}{ 2}$ appears as the scaling function. The universality of the exponent and the scaling factor is investigated.
