Once that is done, the property is registered under the purchaser's name and the keys can be released to the purchaser's. A most commonly asked questions is "When do I get the keys, what time?". Depending on when the funds were received from the bank and then transferred to the sellers lawyer, then release of deed etc, the process could be done by 1 pm or 5 pm (That's when the land registry closes) so most lawyers would not promise the delivery of keys to the purchaser's before 5 pm.
