Advantages to doing your own Home Information Pack There are several advantages to organizing your own HIP: - Cost - Instead of paying a solicitor or estate agent to order searches, you are ordering searches directly - cutting out the middle man and reducing your costs.
- Time - Solicitors can be very busy and could have many cases to attend to at one time. By organising your own searches you do not need to wait for a gap in the case load.
- Customisation - by organising your own searches you are sure to get exactly the searches that you want.
- Throughness - By taking control of your own searches you can ensure that searches are carried out to a degree and depth that satisifes you.
- Visability - You will know what is going on at every stage in the process.
- Freedom - With your own HIP compiled, you are free to progress with your property transfer in any way you like. You are not tied in to any estate agency or conveyancy company. If you sell your property, you are not obligated to pay a percentage of your sale price to the HIP provider.
