    Why EPC Ratings Matter for Manchester Properties

    • Selling — Properties with better EPC ratings sell for more. An A/B-rated home can command up to 14% more than a G-rated equivalent.
    • Renting — Landlords must ensure rental properties meet a minimum E rating under MEES regulations or face fines up to £5,000.
    • Energy bills — Higher-rated homes are cheaper to run. Moving from D to C could save £200–£400 per year on energy bills.
    • Environment — Better-rated homes produce fewer carbon emissions, contributing to the UK's net-zero targets.
