When can I start to market my property?

From 6 April 2009, the HIP must be available and contain at least the following documents on the first day a property is put on the market:

  • Home Information Pack Index
  • Property Information Questionnaire (PIQ)
  • Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) or Predicted Energy Assessment (PEA)
  • Sustainability Information (required for newly built homes)
  • Sale Statement
  • Evidence of Title

If there is a delay in obtaining the EPC or PEA then marketing may commence 14 days from when the HIP was originally ordered.
