Domestic Energy Certificates
At The EPC Gent, we specialise in providing Domestic Energy Certificates. When it comes to selling or renting out a property, regardless of its size, a Domestic Energy Certificate is a mandatory requirement for dwellings that cater to a single family. Hence, if you find yourself in a situation where you are selling or renting out your property, it is essential to obtain and provide an EPC.
Temporary Buildings
However, it’s worth noting that there are exceptions to this requirement. Temporary buildings with a usage duration of two years or less, standalone buildings with a total floor space of less than 50m2, workshops and non-residential sites with minimal energy usage, holiday accommodations or residential properties rented out for a maximum of four months per year, as well as some listed buildings, may be exempt.
EPC for a Domestic Property
It’s important to be aware that failure to have an EPC for a domestic property during the sale or rental process could result in a fine of £200. By ensuring compliance with this requirement, you can avoid any potential legal complications and penalties. Feel free to reach out to us at EPC Gent to provide you with the necessary support and assistance in obtaining your Domestic Energy Certificate.
