After looking at online forums for an online solicitor in Tring, most post that I should instruct a CQS accredited solicitor. Can you explain what CQS is?
The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised kitemark for legal experts in the legal transfer of properties, trusted by some of the UK's biggest lenders. Four years ago the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Building Societies Association (BSA). The scheme does not cover licenced conveyancers. Tring is one of the numerous areas in England and Wales where there are CQS solicitors.
Me and my partner are purchasing a property in Tring. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we have to send funds into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our money?

Intending to buy a house in Tring. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Tring conveyancing practitioner is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.
Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Tring before instructing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may refuse to grant a loan on a flying freehold property.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the owners will only move forward if we instruct the agent's preferred conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Tring
It is unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to appoint your own,trusted Tring conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will earn their negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by senior management.
I am intending to sublet my leasehold apartment in Tring. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Do I need to ask my freeholder for their consent?
Some leases for properties in Tring do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
