New research from energy supplier, OVO, has revealed that over two-thirds of Brits who are currently in the housing market are specifically after properties with green installations that improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions – higher EPC ratings, in particular. Therefore, it pays to be clued up on the very things that can bring your EPC rating up that, in turn, will help add value to your home, too.
Recent data from Rightmove's Greener Homes report shows that improving the EPC rating of a home from F to C could increase its overall value by 15%, allowing homeowners to enjoy lower energy bills while occupying the property, then receiving a bigger payout when the time comes to sell their house.
