From 1 August 2007 anyone selling a house or other property with four or more bedrooms has had to compile a home information pack. One of the documents that has to be in all HIPs is an energy performance certificate (EPC). The EPC has to be drawn up by a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor.

Energy Performance Certificates are intended to give both buyers and sellers information about how energy efficient (or inefficient) a property is. The certificates will give the property an energy efficiency rating on a scale of A to G, with A being the most efficient and G being the least efficient.

The better the energy efficient rating shown on the energy performance certificate, the less it is likely to cost to heat the property.

There has been a fair bit of criticism of home information packs - partly because of fears that there will not be enough domestic energy assessors available to provide everyone with a quick turnaround on energy performance certificates. But it is hoped by those in support of Home Information Packs (HIPs) that they will help speed up the process of buying a house and selling a property and will make for easier and faster conveyancing. Time will tell if the extra outlay will save you money so we are here to help you find the quickest Home Information Packs providers, information on mortgages, and other ways of saving money when you are moving house.
