For the marketed sales of homes, the Home Information Pack (HIP) Regulations apply. The initial HIP transitional period was supposed to come to an end on 1st June 2008, so that thereafter, all sales (subject to exceptions) would require a HIP. However, the Government has announced (8th May) an extension of the “temporary first day marketing provision” which allows a property to be marketed without a HIP where the documents required for inclusion in the HIP have been commissioned and paid for, or arrangement for payment been made and are expected to arrive within 28 days. This provision is now extended to 31st December 2008. See http://www.communities.gov.uk/statements/corporate/hips
