About This E-Rated Property
This semi-detached house is located in BIRMINGHAM, B20 2ND. The property offers 84m² (904 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (40/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (89/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £2186, comprising £1501 for heating, £596 for hot water, and £89 for lighting. The property produces 6.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in March 2025 for £195,000. For landlords: This property currently meets the minimum E rating requirement under MEES regulations. However, the government has proposed increasing the minimum to C by 2028 for new tenancies and 2030 for existing tenancies, so consider planning upgrades now.
