David discusses:
Sustainable homes with Passivhaus accreditation are already seeing 5-10% increase in value above the market.
His warning to our listeners is this, listen closely, an EPC takes 30 minutes to assess. It's the biggest investment most people will ever make, surely 30 minutes due diligence isn't enough when we are on the cusp of what will be the biggest shake up of the property market in our lifetime.
David’s team spend 3 days evaluating buildings for customers, its a small investment when you think of the risk. Buyers should educate themselves so they don't end up with re-work from a poorly thought through plan
Quality Quality Quality!!!
Insulation, you are better off having less and it installed properly, than a shed load badly.
Air-tight, insulation doesn't work if the building is as draughty as a barn.
Windows, you should be looking at triple-glazed because our climate is not right for double.
Ventilation, an MVHR can recover well over 90% of the heat we would normally lose from a building using from ventilating, also filters the air and has heaps of health benefits. Would you like to wake in the morning feeling full of energy from breathing fresh circulated air?
An EPC will tell you if it has insulation, but it won't tell you if it is insulated! Theres a high difference.
Air-source heat pumps, amazing when installed in the right house, unfortunately, 99.99% of houses in the UK are not ready for them and they the owners bills and demand on the grid will rise NOT decrease. At this time they are a false eccomy.
David recommend to look up the AECB and Passive House Trust if you are serious about making informed decisions in property investing.
