Landlord EPC Consultancy & Predictive Modelling

A standard EPC assesses a property as it currently stands, but many landlords need to understand how planned upgrades will affect their energy rating before carrying out work.

That’s where my Landlord EPC Consultancy & Predictive Modelling service comes in.

Using an in-depth understanding of the EPC process, I can remodel the property outside of the rigid confines of the standard EPC. This can more accurately show how alterations such as heating or hot water system changes, insulation upgrades or renewable energy installations are likely to impact your EPC rating - before any investment is made.

This is a bespoke service, which I have personally designed to help you avoid unnecessary spending and ensure improvements are strategic, effective and compliant.

For landlords, this frequently highlights how making some lesser considered tweaks to the property in its current form can open up the route to higher ratings, which previously only seemed achievable through prohibitavely costly measures.

With energy performance regulations tightening, predictive modelling can potentially save significant money and stress.

With this unique and common-sense approach, you will no longer be left in the dark. Get in touch to discuss your property and your upgrade goals.

• Landlords preparing for Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES)
• Developers seeking to maximise efficiency and resale value
• Investors evaluating upgrade costs against rating improvements 

• Energy report of the property in its current form
• Discussion and overview of proposed or desired changes
• In-depth consultation focussing on what negatively impacts an EPC
• Unpicking of jargon and highlighting of hidden nuances
• Remodelling of the property including, where possible, changes the EPC software does not suggest
• Potential to analyse the effect of installing specific boiler or heating models
• Realistic target range, free of undesired upgrade measures
• A practical action plan to achieve target
• Discounted EPC certificate after revisiting the property once works are completed

The exact cost of my predictive modelling service varies depending on property size and certain characteristics. 

As a guide, typical pricing for standard properties is as follows:

• 1 bedrooms: £150 with later certification at £45
• 2 bedrooms: £160 with later certification at £50
• 3 bedrooms: £170 with later certification at £55
• 4 bedrooms: £180 with later certification at £60

*Later certification must be made within one year or before any updates to the EPC calculation method. 

The cost of the full service, after discounted certification, is approximately the cost of 2.5 EPC certificates. With this route, you receive one certificate, a tailored roadmap and a lot of additional knowledge, as opposed to two EPCs an still no guarantee of achievening your target.

If the property already achieves your goal, or the desired rating is simply not possible, I will only charge the standard price for an EPC and issue you a new certificate on the day if required.
