Importance of EPC ratings for landlords

From 2025, proposed regulations could require Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) to be at least a ‘C’ for properties with new tenancies. 

Our short whitepaper – Confronting the EPC Challenge: The Path to a Sustainable Rental Market - analyses the impact these proposed regulations could have on the private rented sector, and how the rising cost of living is driving a shift towards energy efficiency improvements.

New! Energy Efficiency Discount

We’re committed to providing long-term, sustainable solutions to support landlords to improve the energy efficiency of their investment properties.

If your Buy-to-let property has an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of at least a ‘C’, you’ll be eligible for a discount on the arrangement fee when taking out a new mortgage with us.

The following discount will apply:

A rating: 0.60%  B rating: 0.45% C rating: 0.25%

For example - if a 3% arrangement fee is applicable, you would be charged 2.55% for a property with an EPC rating of 'B'

Improving your EPC rating

If the EPC rating of your new investment is below a ‘C’, it’s an ideal time to consider how you can improve its energy efficiency.

By carrying out improvements to your property during the lifetime of the mortgage, that result in an improved EPC rating of at least a ‘C’, you could be eligible for a partial refund of our arrangement fee**.

All you need to do is submit the new certificate to us and we’ll also refund the cost of the new EPC certificate (up to £100). The partial refund is based on the newly acquired EPC rating so the same percentages apply to the refund as well as the discount.
