The free-to-use eco-Landlord service, designed to help landlords improve their property’s EPC rating, has now been extended to include mortgage brokers.
Brokers can now:
-
Advise landlord clients on energy efficiency upgrades
-
Receive notifications if mortgage finance is needed for improvements
-
Help source suitable mortgage products
With proposed government regulations requiring EPC C for new tenancies by 2028 (and all rentals by 2030), eco-Landlord supports:
-
Identifying necessary upgrades
-
Creating personalised retrofit plans
-
Finding grants and installers
-
Verifying improvements with a final EPC
CEO Angus Stewart says the move reinforces brokers’ role as trusted advisors while simplifying the upgrade journey for landlords.
