What home sellers should know about Home Information Packs

As of 1 June 2007, UK home sellers employing the services of estate agents will be obliged to obtain a Home Information Pack (HIP) before putting their homes on the market. The pack includes such documents as the terms of sale, guarantees pertaining to the property and/or any maintenance jobs undertaken on it, an energy performance certificate and various other mandatory and optional documents.

This latest government legislation means that the majority of home sellers in the UK will be compelled to obtain a Home Information Pack, as most home sales are conducted through estate agents. However, this cache of information comes with a price tag of up to £1,000. If you’re already suffering from financial strain, adding such a sum to your mounting arrears could be a terrifying notion.

But did you know that if you choose to sell your home to MPG, you won’t have to spend any additional time – or valuable cash – on obtaining a Home Information Pack? Should you decide to sell your home to us, it will not be necessary for you to have an HIP, which means that you’ll save on two of your most precious resources – time and money. This is excellent news for those who want to avoid unnecessary expenses, and even better for those who wish to sell their homes fast!

Additional facts about Home Information Packs

If you are considering selling your home, it’s crucial to bear in mind this new government legislation, as it will have a direct effect on your time and your finances. The aim of the HIP documentation is to provide free, useful information regarding the home to potential buyers, in order to create greater transparency in UK home sales. But, as the seller, it will be up to you to fork out the cash to pay for the HIP – and it will also be your responsibility to take the time to have the stack of supporting documentation prepared.
