In London’s competitive property market, speed matters. Sellers want their properties listed quickly, landlords want tenants secured without delays, and estate agents need transactions to progress smoothly.
EPCRATE Services — Quick Links
One of the most common reasons property marketing is delayed is the absence of a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
A fast and reliable EPC provider can help estate agents minimise delays, improve client experience and keep instructions moving efficiently from valuation to marketing.
Founded in 2015 by Jino Jose, EPCRATE supports estate agents, letting agents, landlords and property professionals across London with fast EPC assessments, Floor Plans and Draft EPC reviews. Call 020 3488 4142 to set up agency support.
Why EPCs Matter to Estate Agents
Before a property can be fully marketed, estate agents often need key information and supporting documentation in place.
This typically includes:
- Property details.
- Photography.
- Floor plans.
- Sales particulars.
- EPC information.
Delays in obtaining an EPC can impact the overall marketing timeline and create unnecessary frustration for sellers and landlords.
Property Listings Move Faster When Documentation Is Ready
Many vendors instruct estate agents expecting immediate marketing.
However, agents frequently discover:
- The EPC has expired.
- No EPC exists.
- Property records are incomplete.
- The seller cannot locate previous documentation.
Having access to a responsive EPC provider can help reduce delays and keep transactions moving.
Why Speed Matters in the London Market
London’s property market is highly competitive.
Whether dealing with:
- Residential sales.
- Lettings.
- Portfolio landlords.
- Property investors.
- Commercial instructions.
many clients expect quick turnaround times and efficient service.
Fast EPC appointments can help support these expectations. EPCRATE offers same-day appointments where possible, with certificates typically lodged within 24 hours.
Estate Agents Benefit From Reliable Service Partners
Estate agents regularly coordinate multiple services during the marketing process.
Examples include:
- Photography.
- Floor plans.
- EPC assessments.
- Inventory services.
- Compliance documentation.
Working with reliable service providers can help reduce administration and improve client satisfaction.
The Advantage of EPC and Floor Plan Bundles
Many estate agents prefer arranging EPCs and floor plans together.
This can help:
- Reduce appointment coordination.
- Simplify administration.
- Speed up marketing preparation.
- Improve workflow efficiency.
EPCRATE offers the EPC + Floor Plan Bundle at £118 throughout London — one visit, both documents, saving £20 versus booking separately.
Supporting Landlords and Property Investors
Many estate agents work closely with landlords and property investors.
These clients often require:
- Portfolio EPC management.
- Rental compliance support.
- Floor plans.
- Commercial EPCs.
- Fast appointment availability.
Having a trusted EPC provider can support ongoing client relationships.
Draft EPC Reviews for Landlord Clients
Some landlords seek guidance before undertaking improvement works or refurbishment projects.
A Draft EPC review can help landlords:
- Review current energy performance.
- Identify supporting evidence.
- Explore potential improvement pathways.
- Support budgeting decisions.
- Plan future property improvements.
However, a Draft EPC does not guarantee a particular EPC rating, compliance outcome or improvement result.
Final EPC ratings depend on the property’s characteristics, supporting evidence, assessment methodology and information available at the time of assessment.
Bulk EPC Services for Estate Agents
Many London estate agents manage large property portfolios.
Bulk EPC arrangements can help support:
- Lettings departments.
- Property management teams.
- Corporate landlords.
- Portfolio investors.
- Build-to-rent operators.
Dedicated support and streamlined booking processes can improve operational efficiency.
