Hipstar is one of the largest projects undertaken by The Network Data Group at a cost to the group of over £1m. Hipstar is a web-delivered solution managing to provide a simple, user-friendly interface with powerful functionality. The Hipstar solution provides estate agents and mortgage brokers with the facility to order all the components of a Home Information Pack for delivery to home owners.

The Hipstar system consists of the following modules:
