When selling or renting a property, most owners focus on location, price, and presentation—but overlook one silent deal-breaker: the EPC report.

At EPCrate.co.uk, we’re certified EPC assessors providing fast, affordable, and fully compliant Energy Performance Certificates across London. If your EPC is below par, it might be doing more harm than you realise.


🚨 Low EPC Rating = Low Interest

An E, F, or G rating on your EPC doesn’t just signal poor energy efficiency—it raises red flags for buyers and tenants. It can:

  • ❌ Lower your property value

  • ❌ Increase buyer or tenant hesitation

  • ❌ Lead to longer time on the market

  • ❌ Trigger legal blocks for landlords (if below Band E)


🏡 First Impressions Matter—Even on Paper

Buyers are more eco-conscious than ever, and tenants worry about high utility bills. A poor EPC instantly tells them:

“This home will cost more to run.”

And in a competitive property market, that’s a deal-breaker.


🛠️ Common EPC Issues That Hurt Your Listing

  • Old or inefficient boiler

  • Poor or no loft insulation

  • Single-pane windows

  • Lack of smart heating controls

  • Energy-wasting lighting or appliances


⚙️ Quick Fixes = Big Gains

You don’t need a full renovation. Simple upgrades can push your EPC into a higher band:

  • Switch to LED lighting

  • Add or top up loft insulation

  • Install a smart thermostat

  • Seal draughts

  • Upgrade to double glazing
