When are Energy Performance Certificates required?
Since 1 October 2008 all homes have needed an Energy Performance Certificate when
built or sold. For rented properties an EPC will need to be provided whenever a
self-contained property is let to a new tenant.
It is the responsibility of the person selling or renting a building to have a valid
EPC to show to prospective buyers and tenants. The EPC must be given to the eventual
buyer or tenant.
An EPC is valid for ten years, except for sales of homes.
In these cases an EPC must be no more than three years old when the property is
first marketed.
Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations 2007 requires all properties
for sale or rent to have an Energy Assessment carried out.
Even if the property does not require a full Home Information Pack because the property
has been on the market before the original deadline; vendors must from the 1st October
have an Energy Assessment carried out and supply a hard copy of the EPC to the successful
purchaser before contracts are exchanged.
EPCs are also required when the first new tenant moves into a rented
property after 1st October.
