HIP packs are ditched by Dave & Nick

Our wonderful new government have decided to suspend the use of Home Information Packs (HIPs) with effect from 21st May 2010.

Whilst this will please most property lawyers and conveyancers, the reality is that a mini industry has sprung up over the last 4 years employing between 5-10,000 people in the production of the much criticised packs.

The concept was smart enough, it was just the delivery and in the end a pretty poor final product that did for the HIP.
