Offical Council Searches Home Information Pack

Offical Council Searches Home Information Pack

HIPs are designed to eliminate delays in house selling by obtaining the searches and confirming ownership before the property is marketed, and contain the following;

- Title documents that show the extent and ownership of the property.
- Local authority searches that highlight planning permissions and building control notices.
- Drainage search providing details of the connection to water supply (clean and foul)
- Leasehold documentation (if appropriate)
- Energy Performance Certificate that shows the energy efficiency of the property

We aim to provide the HIP within 7 days.
