Default Re: HIPS & EPC assessor careers

Mate i considered this when i left the property industry. They sent me info for courses... that if i'd gone on now would be worth nothing.

The Office of The Deputy Prim Minister was where the courses were being offered from and they still keep sending me emails offering me places on courses.

TBH i cant see the HIPS being around much longer. Once a good few 4 bedroom houses have been sold as 2 bed/2 study and everyone makes a mockery of need for them they'll just be another useless piece of legislation that has fallen by the wayside.

It was an attempt to introduce a new stealth tax on property but they didnt think it thru in their haste to get their hands on some of the cash.

So my advice, and just imho of course, is dont waste your time pursuing a career that wont exist in a few years time.
