Home Information Packs

By using Poole Hips to create your Home Information Pack you will not only have the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your pack has been created by industry professionals, you will also be getting a pack that is independant meaning that if you decide to change agents you can take your pack with you.

This is also the case where you may be marketing your property privately. Getting your pack through us will ensure that you have met the required criteria, without having to go through an agent or any third parties.

More Options

Another benefit of dealing direct with Poole Hips is that we can add in optional extras to the pack at minimal cost. These could include Home use and home contents forms to give potential buyers information on a range of matters relating to the property, such as information on boundaries, notices, services, sharing with neighbours, planning permissions and other matters of interest to potential buyers. You may also wish to include copies of guarantees and warranties for work done on the property (replacement windows, central heating etc).

Provided that the pack has been requested in writing (and is accompanied by the appropriate payment or an undertaking to make the payment) and it is expected to become available within 28 days – marketing can start without a Pack. The duty to provide a Pack does not then arise until the energy performance certificate (EPC) is obtained.

The temporary period ends on 31 May 2008. So from 1 June 2008, there must be a Pack available when marketing starts and certain documents must be in the Pack. Marketing with an incomplete Pack may take place if documents have been requested and it is expected that they will become available within 28 days of the start of marketing. Where documents are missing, this should be noted in the Pack Index and reasonable efforts should be made to obtain them as soon as possible.
