Do I need a Home Information Pack (HIP)
You do not need a HIP for:
- Properties where there is no marketing (e.g. sale to a member of your family)
- Non-residential properties
- Seasonal and holiday accommodation
- Mixed sales (e.g. shop with flat)
- Right to buy and similar sales
- Sales of portfolios of properties
- Properties not being sold with completely vacant possession
- Unsafe properties and properties to be demolished
- Properties already on the market when the duty to have a Pack arises (e.g. 1 August for sales of homes of 4 bedrooms and above and 10 September for homes of 3 bedrooms)
