Home Information Packs Suspended

[admin]

I must have missed this in the news but home information packs have been suspended and any home marketed on or after 21 may 2010 no longer require an information pack.

The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) will be retained. Sellers will still be required to commission, but won't need to have received an EPC before marketing their property.#

I won't mourn the lose of HIPPS - a good thing all round I think.

I was glad when they scrapped this, saves a lot of money
