1st August 2007 - HIPs become legal requirement of home selling process.

The 1st August 2007 saw the introduction of those parts of the Housing Act 2004 that contain the duty to have a Home Information Pack when selling a home. However the Government have limited the obligation to those homes with four or more bedrooms. They have also said that prior to marketing the duty is to have ordered a HIP, it does not have to be complete. This relieves the pressure on pack providers and those who are the source of the information that goes into a pack.

The market will be slow to adapt to the new Home Information Pack duties but Hips4Sellers have a cost competitive solution to provide HIPs to Seller's Estate Agents, Buyers and Conveyancers in the most economic and efficient manner possible.
