  We consider It\^o uniformly nondegenerate equations with time independent
coefficients, the diffusion coefficient in $W^{1}_{d,loc}$, and the drift in
$L_{d}$. We prove the unique strong solvability for any starting point and
prove that as a function of the starting point the solutions are H\"older
continuous with any exponent $<1$. We also prove that if we are given a
sequence of coefficients converging in an appropriate sense to the original
ones, then the solutions of approximating equations converge to the solution of
the original one.
