I think 6 months is the absolute maximum ds1980 after which solicitors just won't accept the searches. There's also a special form for the searches that has something to do with the HIP.
My LA had indicated that they might be in a position to offer a free update on my searches for my HIP. Whether that is really financially feasible for them, I don't know.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

As for who you give it to, I have no idea! Mine is sat in the bookshelf, LOL.
I guess my buyer's solicitor will ask for it at some point! Your EA will need your EPC graphs for the brochure.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
