Me and my partner are buying a apartment in Castelnau. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we have to put money into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our monies?

I am expecting a DIP from Aldermore this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Castelnau solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Castelnau solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
Will commercial conveyancing searches reveal impending roadworks that may impact a commercial land in Castelnau?
Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Castelnau will carry out a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Castelnau.

How does conveyancing in Castelnau differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Castelnau come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Castelnau typically purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Castelnau or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Castelnau is where the house is located. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Castelnau are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Castelnau you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Castelnau may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
