Landlords say government’s energy efficiency plans will break the bank
Original Article Summary
Government urged to engage with the sector to develop a clear plan to help landlords invest in energy efficiency works
PropMatch Curated Analysis
Government plans requiring landlords to spend up to £15,000 per property on energy efficiency upgrades are financially unviable for most landlords who earn just £19,400 annually in rental income, with affordability limits reached at £7,700 per property.
Investor Relevance
Critical for all landlords as mandatory energy efficiency upgrades could significantly impact cash flow, property viability, and investment returns, particularly affecting lower-value northern properties disproportionately.
