Are you a landlord? do you rent out properties? Are you ready for the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards on 1st April? The MEES will be tightened even further and will apply to all existing tenancies, even where tenants are staying in place. This means that it will be unlawful to rent a property - regardless of whether it is a new tenancy, a renewal tenancy or an existing tenancy - which breaches the requirement to have a minimum E rating on an EPC and a landlord must carry out works to bring the EPC rating to E or above, unless there is an applicable exemption. If works are needed, there is not long to act! Contact Allen Residential for professional guidance on being compliant. Contact James Allen on 01761 412300 james@allen-residential.co.uk
