This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a first time purchaser of a ground floor flat in Finedon. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Finedon?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will arrange to send the completion advance to the seller's solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be invited to collect the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
I have paid off my mortgage with TSB. I assume I don't need a Finedon solicitor on the TSB panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your TSB mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the TSB mortgage from the register. TSB, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where TSB has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- TSB has instructed the Land Registry to do so

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 Finedon conveyancer is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel.
