Home Information Packs
Properties instructed for sale from 14 December 2007 in England and Wales will need a Home Information Pack (HIP). The Government continues with this introduction despite protest from many sectors of the property related sector of it having the reverse effect to which it was intended to have.

Properties already on the market prior to 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) do not need to have a HIP. At this stage no such date has been set when all properties that are on the market will be required to have a HIP.
