Properties marketed for sale from 14 December 2007 in England and Wales will need a Home Information Pack (HIP), which includes a home energy rating and are intended to speed up the conveyancing process and improve the energy efficiency of our homes.
The Pack includes an Energy Performance Certificate, containing advice on how to cut carbon emissions and fuel bills. Also included are documents such as a sale statement, searches and evidence of title.
Currently, any property that was already on the market on the relevant commencement date (i.e. 1 August 2007 for sales of homes with four or more bedrooms; 10 September 2007 for those with three or more bedrooms and 14 December for all properties) does not need to have a HIP.
The Pack brings together key information needed by buyers and sellers at the very start of the home-buying process. If you're a seller, you need to make sure you have commissioned a Pack by the time that you market your property.
On 29 September 2006, the Search Code and HIP Code were introduced, delivering quality standards across both the property search industry and in Home Information Packs. Finlay Associates is registered with the Property Codes Compliance Board as a subscriber to the HIP Code.
Trust Finlay Associates to provide a cost effective, total solution for your HIP requirements.
