Forgive me if this question is silly but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Harold Hill. Do I receive the keys to the premises on completion from my lawyer? If so, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Harold Hill?
On the day of completion you will not be required to go to the conveyancers office in Harold Hill. Conveyancing lawyers for you will arrange to send the purchase money to the seller's lawyers, and once they have received this, you will be called to collect the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens early afternoon.

My husband and I have organised a further advance on our home loan from Barclays as we wish to carry out renovations to our property in Harold Hill. Do we need to choose a high street Harold Hill solicitor on the Barclays conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Barclays do not ordinarily require a member of 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 Barclays list.
How does conveyancing in Harold Hill differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Harold Hill come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because builders in Harold Hill usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Harold Hill or who has acted in the same development.
I'm refinancing my primary property to a BTL mortgage with Alliance & Leicester and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on further house. The location we are looking at is Harold Hill. Will your solicitors be able to act for both sets of lenders and link together the conveyances?

Assuming that they are your conveyancer should be able to simultaneously deal with the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you conveyancer and make clear your expectations and requirements.
My wife and I have instructed a Harold Hill conveyancing solicitor for our home move (FTB’s) and have picked up in the engagement letter that they are not regulated by the FCA. Need I be worried or is that standard with solicitor?
We can't see why they should be. Most conveyancing practitioner don't lend money. You should check that they are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who set stringent conditions covering monies sitting on client account.
