Why landlords need an EPC

Is it a legal requirement?

Yes. You must have a valid EPC to market, let or sell a property in England, Wales and Scotland, and it is valid for 10 years. In England and Wales, the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards also require a rented property to have a rating of at least E, unless a valid exemption is registered. In Scotland an EPC is required to let and the rating must appear in adverts, but there is currently no minimum EPC rating to let a private rented property.

What the assessor checks

An accredited Domestic Energy Assessor inspects your property's insulation, heating system, hot water, windows, lighting and construction. They use this to calculate an energy efficiency rating from A, the most efficient, to G, the least, along with recommendations to improve it.

What happens if you do not have one

You cannot legally market, let or sell a property without a valid EPC. In England and Wales, letting below the minimum E rating without a registered exemption can lead to a financial penalty from your local authority. A valid EPC keeps your listing compliant and helps tenants understand running costs.
