Is it right to run with the pack?
Series: Estates Gazette ; (0320) 17 May 2003, 139(1)Publication details: 2003Subject(s): Summary: Proposes a process modification, which would remove the core objections to the home information pack (HIP) as is being introduced by the government. Argues that the seller should be required to produce a HIP only when a serious prospective buyer actually appears rather than have it in place at the beginning of the property marketing campaign. The prospective buyer should put down a small deposit to show good faith when the seller commissions the pack most probably through the estate agent. This modification would benefit all parties and help the government to fulfil its manifesto pledge.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
