    Ordering a H.I.P

    Has anyone here had a Home Information Pack done on their home?

    I need to order one. When I google it, the sheer volume of info that comes back is mind boggling. It appears that there are loads of fly by night companies that have jumped on the bandwagon, providing them at cheaper and cheaper prices.

    I want to find someone reliable, but at the same time, I want to spend as little as possible on this as, let's face it, no one cares about them. It's just a formality.

    Any experience or suggestions with this?

    Find an agent that gives you them for free (or cheap) without an unreasonable tie-in period.

      Look, either it is just a formality, or it is more than that. If it is just a formality, do you care? Get the cheapest price. If it is more, then you want to find someone reliable.

      It can't be both a formality and not a formality.

                I'm clearly not in with the CUK jokes...

                    Bob Shawadiwadi's a CUK legend (and it only took him 14 posts!)
