HIPs Information

 

 

Home Information Packs are now a fact of life; with some exceptions all flats and houses  in England and Wales must have a Home Information Pack in place before they can be marketed for sale.

 

 

Because the Berwins' Home Information Pack is prepared by our own legal staff who work every day with the technical legal information that feeds into the pack and the  I.T. behind it we are better placed than anyone to assemble and deliver the pack.

 

 

We only work in partnership with accredited fully insured domestic energy assessors and all the top local estate agents.

 

 

To keep standards high we undertake only official searches of the local authority and water company - not all mortgage lenders or buyers will accept the alternative 'personal searches' and so incorporating the best available searches means less room for delay or duplication of work when you find a buyer.

 

 

Because the legal work and pack assembly is carried out by our own legal staff and not sub-contracted to middlemen each taking a commission we are able to offer a Home Information Pack on a freehold property for only £450 inclusive of VAT and £495 inclusive of VAT on a leasehold property.  If the Energy Performance Certificate goes past the statutory period and needs to be replaced we will deal with  this for you free of charge passing on only the cost of the certificate.

 

 

Our Home Information Pack is stored on our designated website hips.berwin.co.uk so that it is immediately accessible on line by you, your potential buyers and in due course their solicitor.

 

 

For all residential properties newly let to tenants  an EPC will be required.  We can arrange energy performance certificates for all types of property.  Give us a call to find out what’s involved.
