Had my house on the market for almost two years without a HIP(if marketed prior to July 2007 no HIP necessary) just to test the market and would only sell if a really good offer comes along. From Monday, any houses marketed without a HIP face a 200 pound fine by their local council and must fill in a PIQ (Property Information Questionnaire).
This is a further nail in the coffin of the housing market for 2009, but should help to push prices up as fewer will be marketed. Roll on a Tory HMG and abolition of HIPS and all other associated red tape that Labour have lumbered the housing market with.
