The house price premium for a property with a higher
energy rating – A or B – is just 1.7% compared to a D-rated home, new research
from Nationwide shows. At the other end of the scale, houses rated F or G run
with a 3.5% discount over a D-rated property, the lender’s report adds. These
values are likely to change over time, however, especially if the government
takes measures to incentivise greater energy efficiency in future to help ensure
the UK meets its climate change obligations.
Regulation means that socially rented houses have the highest energy
efficiency ratings, followed by privately rented stock. Read more on the
