The Government has introduced Home Information Packs with the aim of improving the process of buying and selling a home. Moving can be a stressful and costly experience, prone to delay and failed transactions.

As a seller, providing a Home Information Pack will mean that buyers are able to make more informed decisions about buying your home and this will help reduce the likelihood of nasty surprises coming up later in the process and delaying the sale.

What are Home Information Packs?
The Home Information Packs will include the key documents that are normally required when properties are bought and sold.

The documents will include:
  • An index of contents
  • An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
  • A sales statement (summarising the sales details)
  • Local Authority Searches
  • Evidence of Title (proof of ownership)
  • Leasehold information, if appropriate
Optional documents will include:
  • A home condition report
  • Guarantees and warranties
  • Other searches relevant to any particular area
  • Legal Summary

Tim Duggan, one of Footners residential conveyancers, has qualified as a Domestic Energy Assessor and is only one of a handful of accredited DEA’s in the area who can prepare an Energy Performance Certificate.
