Why should you care?

Because your prospective tenants will be able to see at a glance how energy efficient and environmentally friendly your properties are. If you have invested in energy saving measures your properties will perform well and will really stand out from the crowd. If not you may find them harder to rent out in future.

What is an Energy Performance Certificate?

EPCs look similar to the energy labels found on domestic appliances such as fridges and washing machines.

How do I get an Energy Performance Certificate?

Robbie Howarth Estate Agents are now in a position to arrange an EPC for your property from an accredited Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA). They will visit your property to assess the age, construction and location of the property as well as its current fittings such as heating systems, insulation, double glazing etc.

The EPC will remain valid for ten years for Rental properties and three years for Sales properties.

When do I need to get one?

If you don’t have one after the 1st October 2008 date you could be fined £200 for non-compliance.
