Changing times for UK Property

UK Property is in the early stages of some dramatic changes. The introduction of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) from April 2008 means the emphasis is swinging towards energy performance of both new and existing building stock. This is likely to have an impact for Developers, Investors and even Tenants as asset value, liquidity and rental levels may be affected for those buildings at the higher or lower end of the performance scale.

The UK Government is determined to drive for more efficient buildings whether on the drawing board or among the huge task of tackling the existing stock throughout our towns and cities. Currently at consultation stage; the 2006 Building Regulations will be given a face lift in 2010 which will see Carbon Emissions reduced by 25% on current standards.
