Commercial EPC's
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive came into effect in 2008 and has had a major impact on the UK property industry for new developments, sales or lettings.
The legislation states that property developers, landlords and owners in England and Wales are not able to construct, sell or lease a commercial building without providing an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to a prospective buyer or tenant. Non-compliance will result in failure to complete conveyancing or possible action by Trading Standards Offices, including fines of up to £5,000.
The Vinden Partnership is accredited to provide Energy Performance Certificates for commercial buildings which are to be rented out, leased or sold.
