The Government is introducing Home Information Packs to improve the process of buying and selling a home.

Currently this can be a stressful and costly experience which is prone to delay and failure.

From 1 June 2007 all home owners in England and Wales will need to arrange for a Home Information Pack to be prepared before putting their homes up for sale.

The Packs will contain -

• Energy Performance Certificate
• Searches and legal documents, which will be mandatory
• A Home Condition Report can also be included by sellers on a voluntary basis.
