HIP Update
Posted on: 27th October 2007
As members of HIPAG - the Home Information Pack Action Group - in relation to Home Information Packs, we received regular updates on HIPs.
HIPAG issued their latest Newsletter last week. The main point they mentioned was that there is no Drop Dead Date yet.
Any property on the market prior to the commencement dates (1st August for 4 bedroom plus and 10th September for 3 bedroom plus) does not need to have a HIP. However, a date will be set when all properties on the market will be required to have a HIP regardless of when they were first marketed.
At the moment we have no categoric news on when one and two bedroomed properties will be introduced. The end of the year is now looking likely. As soon as we have some definite news we will update our website.
