Home Information Packs
From the 10th of September 2007, anyone marketing a property in England or Wales with three or more bedrooms, or their representative, has been legally required to prepare a Home Information Pack and make it available to people who you consider to be genuine potential buyers of the property.

Such properties that were marketed prior to the 10th of September (or prior to the 1st of August in the case of four or more bedrooms) do not require a HIP. This exemption will continue as long as marketing continues but the Government may appoint a date at which all properties on the market will be subject to the HIP duties, regardless of when they were first marketed.

From the 14th of December 2007 one or two bedroom properties in England and Wales will also need a Home Information Pack - unless marketing begins prior to that date.

From the 1st of January 2008 every residential property on the market in England and Wales will require a Home Information Pack before it is placed on the market - unless it was first marketed prior to the above dates when there will remain no obligation to provide a HIP.

Unconverted barns are exempt.

Selling your property online?
Please remember that emails, etc., offering to buy your property for cash / at over the asking price from someone overseas if you will travel to complete the deal / give them your bank details is just the latest in a long list of internet scams doing the rounds. Please do not be taken in.

The best £89 I've ever spent!
"I am happy to inform you that I exchanged contracts on the Barn today. You will be just as happy to know that the sale was via your website. I received an offer on the barn in the 1st week of February which in reality was just over 2 weeks after I had put my barn up for sale on your site."
Ron Walker, Lincolnshire

"I just wanted to let you know that you have had another success! We completed on Friday following a response to the advert on your website. Having had the property on with an agent for 7 months prior to posting the advert with Barns Etc and taking into account the state of the market at the moment we think that it is very impressive! The advertisement had been on your site for less than 3 weeks when the enquiry came in."
K Bailey, Berkshire

"Great news, the barn has now sold. This was sold via a lead from your site and you achieved what local agents could not. Many thanks again."
J. Paxton, Cheshire

"We have already sold our barn to the first person that came to view! The barn has been for sale with a local estate agent since September and I have not had anything from them at all. Just goes to show that your website really does work!"
Donna H., Lancashire

"I am pleased to tell you that I sold my barn through your site. We had two offers and accepted practically the asking price."
David S., Cheshire

"Although the sale finally originated from a local Estate Agent, it is fair to say that we received far more enquiries from your site than through all of the combined three Estate Agents that we used."
M. Harding, Norfolk

"We have rented the barns! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your help. We have had to turn away four more people and that was in the first two weeks! Your site is a great success."
N. Adams, Warwickshire

"Thank you very much for a value for money listing. The response was overwhelming and we completed the sale today. I would not hesitate to recommend your site."
R. & G. Johnson, Carmarthenshire

"I am delighted to let you know as a result of your excellent web site we have today accept an offer - full asking price!"
T. Powis, Kent

"We had a huge response from our Barns etc page and even when our property was under offer were still receiving enquiries. Even though we have bought another barn, I still can't help but look at your site each day to see what new treasures are there."
K. & J. Williams, Hertfordshire

"We have sold our barn to the first people who viewed it a day after it was on the site. Since then we have been besieged with offers!"
M Pirie, Hampshire

"I am very pleased to tell you that our barn has been sold. Not only did we receive a full price offer within the first four days, but, in consequence of it appearing on your website, a feature article on our barn will be appearing in the county magazine, Sussex Life."
A Hoare, West Sussex

"Thanks to your fabulous website we exchanged contracts today!"
J and S Moore, Wiltshire

"Thanks to Barns Etc. we sold our barn. It was the easiest house sale we’ve ever had."
M Barton, Cheshire

"We would like to thank you for your help and to say we have had in the region of 450 enquiries and even though we completed the sale on Friday we have still been getting emails and phone calls. What a fantastic site you have. We are constantly singing your praises and would recommend you to anyone who wants to sell a barn."
Ian and Michelle, Lincolnshire

"The response through your website has been fantastic - we could probably have sold the barn many times over!"
K Purver, Essex

"I am pleased to inform you that we exchanged contracts, completed and moved out of the barn last Friday. I am still receiving enquiries via email! Your site is excellent at generating viewings and we have recommended it to other barn owners."
J Mills, Hertfordshire

"I am absolutely delighted with your company's service. I still continued to receive genuine enquiries after the barn was marked up as sold subject to contract and your organisation when we started was excellent. A nice change in business today."
M. Younger, Shropshire

"I had a great response to the barn advert from your website. We now have a wonderful family there and are very happy."
G. Davies, Warwickshire

"We are very pleased to let you know that we have completed on our sale. Thank you for an excellent web site. We had a fairly constant stream of enquires over the time it was displayed which resulted in a sale."
M Cheshire, Buckinghamshire

"Thanks again for all your help in finding us our buyer."
M Humphrey, Hampshire

"I just wanted to let you know that we have sold our barn thanks to your website. We completed 2 weeks ago; I wish we had used it before we did, but never mind! It was the best £89 I have ever spent!"
J Saunders, West Midlands

"The response received from your website has been very good. The purchaser of the barn enquired only 48 hours of you placing the barn on your site, viewed one day later, and an offer was accepted only 5 days after the barn being listed."
C. Browning, Suffolk

"We had a great response - over 100 emails and about 90 phone calls."
B. Walton, Cumbria

"Just wanted to inform you that I have now sold the barn. After putting it on your website it was under offer within 2 weeks and has just exchanged. Did the calculations and actually saved myself £5,188.50."
L. Beatty, Kent

"We sold to a couple who came via your site and we exchanged contracts with them yesterday. I would certainly recommend you and use you again!"
Tim Elkins, Gloucestershire

"We have had hundreds of enquiries and I can honestly say advertising the barn with you was the best thing we could have done. It is great to have a website where you can reach so many people who are solely interested in purchasing barns. It completely cuts out a large majority of the timewasters you would otherwise get advertising on a general property website."
K. Mantle, Cornwall

"Thanks to your brill website we have accepted an offer on our property - we have had the most fabulous response."
R. Warrington, Powys

"We completed our sale on our Barn Conversion last week. Unfortunately it was via an agent although the response from your website was phenomenal."
N. Smith, Cambs

"Great news! I completed on the barn I had for sale with you on Friday with my buyer using www.barnsetc.co.uk to find the property. The best £89.00 I have spent in a very long time!"
M. Boyce, Suffolk

"Barnsetc.co.uk is a great site on which to advertise and sell your barn. As a retired London Estate Agent I was very impressed for two simple reasons; far more enquiries than a local agent produced with one leading to a very satisfactory sale and all for a one off registration fee of £89.00."
R. Tydeman, Shropshire

"Thanks to your website we have had over 250 enquiries (with at least four people willing to gazump our purchasers!) and I am happy to inform you that the sale is now completed on the barn. Your site is great - we couldn't have wished for a better response."
C Stebbing, Cumbria

"Just to let you know we have exchanged contracts on our barn today from an enquiry through your website. I shall have no hesitation in recommending you for the future."
L. Curtis, Essex

Gerry, Suffolk
