If you are selling, renting, or refinancing a property in Tower Hamlets, you may need a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). An EPC assesses the energy efficiency of a property and provides a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), together with recommendations for improving performance. UK regulations require landlords and property owners to have a valid EPC available when marketing a property for sale or rent. An EPC is valid for 10 years and helps buyers and tenants understand likely energy costs before making a decision.
