Me and my partner are buying a flat in West Drayton. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we will need to put money into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our monies?

My husband and I have organised a further advance on our home loan from TSB as we want to carry out alterations to our home in West Drayton. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar West Drayton solicitor on the TSB conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

TSB do not ordinarily appoint firms on their approved list of lawyers to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the TSB conveyancing panel.

Yorkshire BS have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a property in West Drayton has been agreed to, what happens next?

Your estate agent will need to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the solicitors are on the lender’s approved list). Telephone Yorkshire BS or your broker and complete any relevant documentation. Yorkshire BS will sellect a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or vendor to schedule a time for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Yorkshire BS will issue the offer to you and your solicitors.

My partner and I are downsizing from our property in West Drayton and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any high street West Drayton conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers are using a national conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in West Drayton. We have lived in West Drayton for 4 years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. West Drayton is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?

Flying freeholds in West Drayton are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in West Drayton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in West Drayton may ascertain 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 property.

How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business property in West Drayton and how can you help?

The particular law that you refer to gives a safeguard to commercial tenants, giving them the dueness to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease reaches an end. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.

Our bank agreed in principle to issue us a mortgage. We are using a reputable conveyancer in West Drayton yesterday.

As FTB's, we did not have a clue that the lender had a say Is this legal?
