Important Update for All Luton & Dunstable Landlords: Let us Help You Prepare for New EPC Regulation

As part of the UK’s ongoing commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability, all new tenancies starting this year will likely require an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of C or above.

While this is currently under consultation until 2nd May 2025, it's expected to be implemented soon after. This change means landlords must ensure their properties meet the required standard to avoid non-compliance.

Failing to meet these regulations may lead to restrictions on renting out properties, potential penalties, and decreased tenant demand, as more renters prioritize eco-friendly homes.
