message: I've dispute tagged the last Cost sentence:
The main beneficiaries may be first-time buyers, since they will benefit from the information without having to  pay for a HIP on an existing property.
and put these comments: cite authority that shows property sellers will not incorporate HIP in price; this statement illogical, surely? -84.223.118.236 12:42, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, it doesn't necessarily follow - UK property prices essentially follow supply and demand and so a happy medium will be naturally arrived at. Assertion is uncited anyway, so removal is justified.--A bit iffy 11:07, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cost beneficiaries? 

message: Links to various external sites I've looked at so far indicate the "i" and the "p" should be capitalised. So, if no one says why not, I'll go ahead and rename the article accordingly in the next few days.--A bit iffy 11:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Wrong article! 

message: Should there be a section describing the 'black market premium' for properties that are free from the H.I.P stigma? I am aware of many instances of people paying a premium for properties that do not have an H.I.P 
The extra cost and 'red tape' that this socialist legislation has imposed on the house buying process is being evaded wherever possible.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.9.138.200 (talk) 23:21, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I've removed an assertion that HIPs have contributed to the 2008-9 housing crisis primarily because it's unsourced. Also, the term "contributed" isn't qualified to indicate their significance so as it stands does not convey meaning.--A bit iffy (talk) 17:18, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

message: I would like to add in a citation to an article describing what a Home Report is in Scotland. The Home Information Pack is not Scottish and the equivalent Scottish version - The Home Report-  is not discussed anywhere on Wikipedia. So for people in Scotland trying to understand what is required to sell a house, all they have is information relating to England. There is one citation in the current article which provides information about legislation in Scotland, but no practical information. I feel strongly that Scottish sellers should have access to information alongside those in England.
The citation I want to add is What is a Home Report?
