As a local legal firm you may be concerned that the introduction of HIPs may affect your business.
Certain large pack providers, which are associated with conveyancing factories, have approached your local estate agents and asked them to sign up for their HIP work.
It is vital for any Solicitor to stay one step ahead of this competition. Many legal firms are choosing to compile the HIP themselves. You determine who undertakes the searches and conducts the EPC survey.
You could also use a Home Information Pack Provider to compile the elements needed for the HIP.
With my partners, Inspect your Energy will help you compile a HIP. We would only provide the Energy Performance Certificate for the HIP the rest is done by you.
Be your local representative for selected Pack Providers who offer local legal firms an ethical and quality product. You would then have someone known to you who will visit your client’s home to carry out the report, not some anonymous person of unknown calibre as often provided by other panels.
Inspect your Energy can offer the full HIP prepared by my business partners at very competitive terms. We will not be looking to acquire the conveyancing work, which should then be available for you.
This partnership will allow your firm to build a reputation as the local HIP provider, the advantage of using local names and faces, offering all the benefits that the national firms provide.
We supply the HIP as a complete standalone product, no conveyancing restrictions and no obligations placed on either you, or your clients, to use any other related services.
Please contact us to discuss how Inspect your Energy can help you maximise the opportunities that the Home Information Pack provides.
All new clients will receive the first EPC free.
