FAQs

PIP allows estate agents to list all their properties for free and makes a small charge on the successful exchange of contracts.

A PIP Dataroom gives the estate agent a digital area allowing the seller to complete the online forms and the vendors’ conveyancer and estate agent to upload relevant title information. This information can be seen by potential buyers, through the property specific link on the estate agents’ details.

PIP focuses the seller to post relevant information such as Title Deeds, guarantees, specific information etc. which can be seen by potential buyers. This encourages quality offers, from well-informed buyers who have all the details they require. This transparent approach helps the seller avoid timewasters, delays, offers being withdrawn and aids a quicker exchange of contracts.

The central data-room that PIP provides assists conveyancers by gathering all essential information up front. This in turn saves the conveyancer time by reducing their administrative input; avoiding delays caused by missing information and assists them in achieving a time-efficient exchange of contracts.

PIP allows interested buyers to view all the relevant property details they require, prior to making an offer. This encourages a more committed and well-informed buyer, avoids time wasting and provides a clear and transparent environment for the sale to progress towards completion.
