DO I NEED AN ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE (EPC)?
Since 1ST October 2008 it has been a legal requirement for all landlords to have a valid EPC for their property before it can be let or placed on the market.
WHAT EXACTLY IS AN EPC?
An EPC assesses the energy performance of a property, from “A” representing the most energy efficient property to “G” representing the least energy efficient property. It must be carried out by a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor and will also show a building’s environmental impact by indicating its carbon dioxide emissions.
HOW LONG IS AN EPC VALID FOR?
A valid EPC is valid for 10 years from the date it is issued. It can be used for multiple tenancies within that period.
HOW DO I GET AN EPC?
We can arrange for an EPC to be carried on your behalf within 24 hours in order to avoid any delays letting your property.
If you would like to order an EPC please contact the office, we can usually provide an EPC within 2-3 working days.
