Energy Performance Certificates

The Government has introduced some new transitional arrangements
for buildings that require an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
Under the transitional arrangements, any property on the market
before 1 October and remaining on the market after that date will
require an EPC as soon as practicable, but by 4 January at the
latest, even if it is sold in the meantime. Careful consideration
needs to be given to multi-let buildings and how to manage the
process of when an EPC is required for different parts of the
building or the whole building.
