Frequently Asked Questions

How does EPC rating affect property value?

Research from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero suggests properties with higher EPC ratings can sell for a premium over equivalent lower-rated properties. For rental properties, a better rating can also mean lower void periods and stronger rental yields. Energy efficiency is increasingly a factor in buyer and tenant decisions.

Can I assess a property's energy costs before buying?

Yes. Enter any UK postcode to see EPC ratings, estimated energy costs, and improvement recommendations. EPC data is publicly available and doesn't require ownership. This lets you factor running costs into your investment analysis before making an offer. Our reports are a starting point — always do your own due diligence and seek professional advice before making investment decisions.

What's the ROI on energy improvements?

It varies by property. The Energy Saving Trust provides estimates for common improvements. Loft insulation and cavity wall insulation typically have the shortest payback periods, while solar panels take longer but can significantly boost your EPC rating and property value.

Can I embed energy data on my property website?

Yes. Our Pro plan includes embeddable energy score widgets that you can add to property listings on your website. The widget shows a live energy score and links to the full report. It's a differentiator for property professionals who want to showcase data transparency.
