  1. Homeowners in Scotland could be forced to improve the energy efficiency of their property before they are able to sell, under new proposals unveiled by the Scottish government. This would be an unprecedented step in the UK.
    The plans, which would take effect from 2024, would see all owner occupied properties required to reach EPC C rating when they hit certain “trigger points”, such as a sale or renovation.
    If a seller is unwilling or unable to bring their home up to standard before sale, then the responsibility would fall upon the buyer to bring the property up to an EPC C rating within 12 months.
