520			_aReports the findings of a study undertaken during the Home Information Pack (HIP) area trials of late 2006 and early 2007. Tracks the sale process and reports the perceptions of stakeholders of HIPs. The area trials environment was significantly different to the environment when HIPs were introduced nationally. Covers the question of whether HIPs improve the house buying process, whether Home Condition Report takeup can be maximised to increase benefits introduced by HIPs, and how to maximise the benefits of Energy Performance Certificates.
