The Lowdown on Brexit and EPC!
EPC Certifications are currently required for new build homes and anyone selling or renting out a property. Whilst it is speculated that EPC certifications will remain part of legislation after the country has left the EU, there may be some effects to the way ratings are calculated.For example, whilst many responsible homeowners have installed more energy efficient technology, currently this is not always reflected in the grading. However it is not all good news!
Get Britain Building……
The housing crisis means there is a distinct need for new builds and the redevelopment of existing properties. Currently, EPC Nottingham Certifications are governed by EU legislations, however once Brexit has taken place, there may be space for change. A recent scheme to only build new homes with a zero carbon emission has been shelved and whilst this may reduce the cost of the initial build, the higher price will be paid further down the line.
