• indicate the condition of the section or element that validates the surveyor’s evaluation and assists you in gaining an objective perspective of the property’s state.
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that provides information on the energy efficiency of a property. The certificate is prepared by a qualified assessor and must be included as part of the RICS Home Survey – Level 1 service.
The certificate will provide an energy efficiency rating for the property, based on how energy-efficient the property is in relation to other similar properties. The rating will be given on a scale of A (very efficient) to G (inefficient).
The certificate will also contain information on the property’s carbon dioxide emissions and recommendations on how to improve the energy efficiency of the property.
If you are selling or letting your property, you will need to provide an Energy Performance Certificate to the potential buyer or tenant. It is also a legal requirement to display the certificate in the property when it is on the market.
RICS Homebuyers Survey (Level 2)
The most typical sort of survey is a Level 2 HomeBuyer Report. It may be utilized on a wide range of property types, although it is best suited to properties built within the last 50 years.
