The Energy Act has been updated to include provisions to improve the energy efficiency of rental housing.

The energy law for rental housing has been updated. Landlords must now comply with energy standards. This may require renovation work to improve insulation, replace windows and doors, or install more efficient heating and cooling equipment. However, this can be expensive. Tax incentives and interest-free loans are available to finance the necessary work.

Some rental owners may consider selling their property rather than bringing it up to standard.

Selling your property may involve additional costs such as agency fees and taxes. It is crucial to take these into account before selling. To assess the advantages and disadvantages of selling versus upgrading, it is wise to consult a property expert.
