HIPS Update for Newbuild Properties
From 6 April 2008 properties, which previously did not need a HIP
because they were new build properties, will now require a HIP.
HIPs for properties which are being marketed "off-plan" should include a
predicted energy assessment (PEA), and once the property is physically complete
the PEA in the HIP should be replaced with a full energy performance certificate
(EPC).
Searches to be provided in the HIP do not have to be PLOT SPECIFIC for off
plan sales. The searches carried out can cover a complete development provided
that it covers the particular property (although the government strongly advises
a search per property.)
