How it works.
After taking your order we will carryout the Energy Performance Inspection at your earliest convenience producing the Energy Performance Certificate which will be forwarded to our partner, 'Property and Land Information (PALI) are a national company who has been providing 'Search' information for over eight years They will then carry out the relevant searches and compile the Home Information Pack which will be available online. Hard copies are available at £7.75. PALI are registered with the HIP Code.
The HIP Code provides protection for homebuyers, sellers, estate agents, conveyancers and mortgage lenders who rely on the information included in a Home Information Pack (HIP) provided on residential property within England and Wales. It sets out minimum standards which HIP providers have to meet.
All HIPs which comply with this Code will include the HIP Code logo and you can check whether a HIP provider subscribes to the Code by contacting the Property Codes Compliance Board.
HIP Ownership
Please note that the HIP is meant to be owned by the property owner (the vendor) not by the estate agent.
Please be careful as some estate agents are offering ''free HIPs'' (for which you pay significantly more in the end) Certain estate agents are trying to own the HIPs packs, tie vendors into high fee commissions and very long sole agency periods.
We are an independent HIP provider, which means we are not owned by, or tied to any other Estate Agent or Solicitor, so there are no restrictions, conditions or tie-ins to associated conveyancing, making our HIPs totally portable and accepted everywhere. It's YOUR HIP!
