What EPC rating does a rental property need?

What EPC rating does a rental property need? A rented home in England covered by the rules needs an EPC rating of E or above. Since 1 April 2020 you cannot let, or keep letting, an F or G property unless you have registered a valid exemption. Only if you have registered a valid exemption on the PRS Exemptions Register. Otherwise a home covered by the rules must be improved to E before you let it, and a current let must be brought up to E straight away. Up to £3,500 including VAT under the current rules. If the property is still below E after the recommended work within that cap, you register an 'all relevant improvements made' exemption, which lasts 5 years. Yes. GOV.UK says energy efficiency work done on the property since 1 October 2017 can be counted within the cost cap. Read the full answer, with every source, at rightotax.co.uk.
