We want to promote a greener housing market for consumers and Energy Performance Certificates can play a key part in this. By providing more information on the energy efficiency of homes, we can help consumers make more informed choices about the homes they buy and their impact on climate change.close quote

Due to the fact that Home Information Packs (HIP’s) and Energy Performance Certificates are relatively new to the housing marketplace, we at EPC Professional Energy Assessors thought it would be a good idea to attempt to provide further and relevant information on these matters.

Personal Searchers Guidance – Local Authorities

Some individuals may wish to develop their own Personal Home Information Packs (HIP).

For further info please go to the governments own website at Home Information Pack Overview.

In addition, we found the following download.

This guidance seeks to illustrate and promote good practice for local authority staff and
personal searchers on the conduct of personal searches of the Local Land Charges
Register and other records open for public inspection held by local authorities.

In particular, the guidance is intended to:

  • Help foster a better understanding of the respective roles of personal search

businesses and local authority local land charges staff.

  • Assist local authorities to accommodate personal searches in a way which provides access to the Local Land Charges Register and other records open for public inspection while avoiding unnecessary disruption of the work of staff managing those records.

  • Promote good practice and good working relations among local authority staff and personal searchers.
