Hips, hate them or love them

it's a very bold step for any government to take.

i think it's just another meddling, prying, manipulative and burdensome project that the current government is fond of ramming down our throats.

there are people out there who just can not afford to deal with home alterations the way that the authorities want them too.

i'm sure there are a lot of people who would like to say 'up yours part P' or get 'knotted part L'! and do what ever they want in the sanctity of their own homes.

i, as a builder follow the rules, it's part of my job. it is also part of my job to advise people of the possible repercussions if they don't follow the rules too. i let them make up their own mind.

but there will always be cowboys with dodgy mobile phone numbers regardless of hips, always ready to take advantage.

rant over.
 
I love hips ;)

This would be a fine ethic, as long as those homes never changed ownership, but that doesn't happen, does it? :rolleyes:
 
I read the link....or at least skimmed it......can someone give me the readers digest version? What can be so difficult in selling a house? Or is it one of THOSE things that they try to make more difficult than it really is? Or maybe I missed the point all the way around :oops: :rolleyes:

the thing they are trying to emphasize or enforce with home information packs is disclosure. making you legally responsible for any future undisclosed problems the property may have.

this will only serve to fuel the already tiresome 'sue 'em' culture.

transparency whilst buying and selling goods is a noble thing, if everyone does the same.
 
if you put your house up for sale. You can sell it yourself outright or you can use an agent to sell your house. If you handle the sale yourself, you advertise your house, put up signs, etc.....people come to see your house, walk through, ask questions and if they like it well enough, will make you an offer......and along with this offer, comes the details of what they would like included with their offer....like an inspection ....looking for leaks, wiring probs, termites.....and other nasties. If you agree, he comes out....does the inspection and if everything looks ok.....then fine....or if it doesnt, it becomes another detail that needs to be sorted.....in the end....when it comes right down to it and the monies have been sorted......so has the deal.....

from the above (yes granted it was the short version) how would HIPS work?
