Buy to let financial services specialist Smartlandlord.co.uk is offering landlords a 25% saving on Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) for a limited period only.
Until the end of November 2008, Smartlandlord.co.uk can help landlords sort out their Energy Performance Certificate for just £75 including discount. With a quick turnaround of – in many cases – just 24 hours, Smartlandlord.co.uk can help buy to let landlords avoid a £200 fine and enable them to continue marketing their property.
From 1 October 2008, landlords have a legal obligation to provide prospective tenants with a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) when a viewing is conducted or written information on the property is provided. EPCs are valid for 10 years.
The legal requirement to provide an EPC also applies if a building is converted into fewer or more units and changes are made to the heating, hot water provision, air-conditioning or ventilation services.
Energy Performances Certificates tell owners and potential buyers and tenants about the energy efficiency of a home and how it can be improved. Only accredited energy assessors are able to produce Energy Performance Certificates (EPC), using Government approved software programmes.
Keshav Thukaram, Managing Director, Smartlandlord.co.uk, said:
“With the current energy prices, following the recommendations could soon help save you money. Moreover, the EPC gives you a good starting point for you to apply for grants to increase your property’s energy efficiency, which in turn can help make your property more attractive to potential tenants.”
Smartlandlord.co.uk EPCs are available by calling 0844 8921 333 and by visiting www.smartlandlord.co.uk.
