The solicitor has not clarified about whether the landlord cannot repossess the property, with certainty. Time is not on my hands at the moment, and currently don't have the means to ask anyone else locally about this.

Your solicitor is a fool and you should not be paying someone else "not to know"
You can have that outcome free of charge

You are paying your solicitor to advise you. They need to give you advice

If i was advising you, i would look into the availability of indemnity insurance to cover the position. You should be able to get a quote within a few hours if your solicitor is any good....but your problem is that your solicitor isnt any good.

If you are getting a mortgage presumably your lender will need to be advised on the position by your solicitor - what are they doing about that?
