Contact usAn EPC rating is a review of a property’s energy efficiency, and involves the property being rated on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
EPC ratings are available with the property listing of the home that is for sale, and the estate agent should be able to provide this for you.
You can also visit the EPC website and search for an EPC rating for a property.
If the property is a new build property which isn’t built yet, the home will come with a SAP form or SAP calculation (which you can get from the builder). ‘SAP’ is Standard Assessment Procedure Form and is used to calculate the potential EPC rating.
To be eligible for our Green Mortgage, you must provide us with a copy of the EPC for the home you wish to purchase which confirms that the property is A or B rated. Either the EPC or the SAP must be provided with the mortgage application. The EPC must be valid and have been issued within the last 10 years.
