Meeting New Energy Efficiency Standards Without Remortgaging

Outcome
EPC upgraded to C
The Challenge
Imagine you are a buy-to-let landlord with three properties, two of which are rated E on their EPC certificates. With minimum energy efficiency standards tightening, you need to carry out insulation, double glazing and boiler upgrades before your existing tenancies come up for renewal. The estimated cost is £22,000 - money you do not have liquid without remortgaging and affecting your future borrowing capacity.
How This Could Work
A landlord rent advance - where a provider purchases a portion of your future rental income rights - could cover the full upgrade cost. No hard credit check, no debt added to your balance sheet and no impact on your ability to remortgage in the future. Seven Hills Capital Group would introduce you to the right rent advance provider for your portfolio. Funds typically available within 24 hours.
The Potential Outcome
£22,000 received within 24 hours. Both properties upgraded to a C rating. Tenants renewed their agreements. Rental yield increased as a result of the improvements.
