Double & Megson offer a fast and efficient service at a competitive price, drawing on 30 years experience, practical knowledge and professional expertise. Our aim is to ensure that your matter is completed as swiftly as possible and with the minimum of worry and delay.
 
You can now instruct us online. All you have to do is fill out as much of our Request Form as posssible providing us with your name, contact information and any other details which may be useful. We will get in touch with you as soon as possible with an estimate of costs and details of whom to contact at Double & Megson.

 

Should you decide to proceed, we will guide you through every step of the way with our personal and friendly approach. We prefer to deal with clients in person, face to face. We do not have a multiple choice telephone system. You do not speak to a different person each time you telephone. We believe you should be able to speak to the individual dealing with your matter.

Home Information Packs for £300.00 (inclusive of VAT)

 

As from the 6th April 2009 a Home Information Pack (HIP) must be available as soon as a home is put on the market with an Estate Agent.

 

The Government has introduced HIPs in an attempt to speed up the buying and selling process by ensuring that all the necessary legal documents are in place at the start of the process when the property is placed on the market.

The HIP has been compared to the logbook and service history you expect to find when purchasing a car. A key component of the HIP is the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), which will rate your home's energy efficiency and contain advice on how to cut carbon emissions and fuel bills.

 

Double & Megson can take the stress out of obtaining a HIP. We can provide a fully compliant HIP to enable you, the seller, to fulfil your legal obligations. We will arrange for an accredited Energy Performance Assessor to evaluate your home and produce the EPC.

 

We can also instruct an estate agent on your behalf and once the HIP is prepared we can provide you with a copy or arrange for it to be delivered to your estate agents.

 

If you would like a no obligation quote for your HIP then please feel free to Contact Us and we will provide you with a competitive quote and a break down of the costs as soon as possible.
