Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This terraced house is located in HUDDERSFIELD, HD3 4BD. The property offers 71m² (764 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (1/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (86/100). The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are £4418, comprising £3669 for heating, £631 for hot water, and £118 for lighting. The property produces 12.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in May 2021 for £90,000. IMPORTANT FOR LANDLORDS: With an EPC rating of G, this property does not meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). Since April 2020, landlords cannot legally let properties rated F or G without registering a valid exemption. Penalties for non-compliance can reach up to £30,000. Immediate improvements are required to bring the property to at least an E rating.
