Discuss a programmeYour EPC can matter for more than energy bills
An EPC may influence decisions around selling, letting, buying, remortgaging and improving a property. Some mortgage lenders offer particular products, incentives or affordability treatment for more energy-efficient homes, while landlords must also comply with minimum energy-efficiency requirements when letting qualifying properties. That means an EPC containing inaccurate property information could potentially have consequences beyond the certificate itself.
Mortgages & remortgaging
Some lenders offer green mortgage products, incentives or lending benefits linked to qualifying EPC ratings, and a rating can form part of how energy costs are considered.
Concerned about your EPC rating?Renting your property
Energy-efficiency rules can restrict the letting of qualifying properties with very low EPC ratings unless a valid exemption applies.

Energy efficiency can be one factor affecting how buyers and investors perceive a property.
Request an EPC second opinionIf your EPC is genuinely inaccurate, the consequences could be bigger than a letter on a certificate.
A better EPC can create opportunities. An inaccurate EPC can create unnecessary problems. In England and Wales the current minimum for letting most qualifying private rented homes is band E, not C — we will always explain what applies to your property rather than quote future proposals as if they are already law.
