Are you buying a property?
Why use a PIP Dataroom?
A PIP Dataroom is a digital area where you can see relevant property information about specific properties you are interested in.
A PIP Dataroom's purpose is to ensure you are as well-informed about the property as possible before you offer on it. Because information is gathered before the sale is agreed it also speeds up the sale and makes it more transparent.
Once a sale is agreed all the information required will be in one place for you and your conveyancer.
