New – Parish Liability Search

There are 15,000 parishes in England, out of those 5,200 are at risk from Chancel repair liability. Chancel repair liability benefits pre-Reformation churches in England and Wales. It allows the Church Council of the parish to require the owners of former rectorial land to pay for the repair of the church chancel.  A Parish Liability search is the first step in finding out if a property falls within a Parish that has the potential for chancel repair Liability.

Home Information Packs

Home Information PacksThe introduction of Home Information Packs is planned for June 2007 and intended to speed up the house buying process. The HIP will allow a potential purchaser an insight at the time of interest. It will be commissioned by the seller, traditionally this information was commissioned by each would-be buyer. As the information will be on hand for the potential purchaser before an offer is made, any issues can be highlighted and rectified well in advance. With an estimated 20% of purchases now falling through at a late stage, this is set to drop with the introduction of Home Information Packs.
