Home Information Packs. We can help.

From 1 August 2007, you may require a Home Information Pack (HIP) when selling your UK property. The legislation is changing on a daily basis, but we can provide the best advice and help you sell your house.

What are HIPs?

Home Information Packs (HIPs) contain a set of documents about a property, such as:

Our inspections

HIPs and Energy Assessment Reports are supplied by fully-qualified inspectors with a Diploma in Home Inspection (DIPHI) provided by the Awarding Body for Built Environment (ABBE). All certification is SAVA-approved.

Who requires a HIP?

A Home Information Pack is legally required by anyone selling a property that has three bedrooms or more.

HIPs for smaller properties will be phased-in at a later stage.

Your HIP is provided to potential buyers. They will have access to all the information about your home, and can make a decision quickly.

Legislation changes

The regulations are changing rapidly, but we can advise you about the latest legislation and any modifications to the law that may occur at a future date.
