Latest news: The introduction of HIPs is being delayed until August 1st, for homes with 4 or more bedrooms. Other properties will be phased in over the following months.
Buying and selling a property can be a slow, stressful and costly experience which is often prone to delay and failure. That’s why the Government is introducing Home Information Packs - to improve the process. From 1st June 2007, all home owners in England and Wales will need to prepare a Home Information Pack before putting their home up for sale.
This site will bring you information about Home Information Packs, to ensure that you understand what they are when you need to sell your house.
A Home Information Pack consists of a number of documents to help buyers understand what they are getting.
We are currently developing our online Home Information Pack solution, which will be detailed here over the coming months. The Web based solution will enable our HIP provider partners to create HIPs online and manage the whole HIP process online. Local Estate Agents and Solicitors etc. will be selectable, to ensure that you remain in complete control of the HIP creation process.
