The Association of Residential Letting Agents is reminding its members to tell landlord clients that they have only a month to ensure their properties comply with the government’s new Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards.
From April 1 all rented properties on new lets, including renewals, must be minimum EPC rated E.
“Landlords have been responding to tenants’ demands for better quality and better insulated homes over the last few years; the number of properties which are EPC rated F or G has fallen from around 700,000 in 2012, to 300,000 today. However, there are still a lot which don’t meet the standards” cautions David Cox, ARLA Propertymark’s chief executive.
