What are my legal obligations as a landlord if a tenant requests energy efficiency upgrades to prevent eviction fears?
Quick Answer
Landlords must ensure properties meet an EPC rating of 'E'. While tenants can request upgrades, there's no general obligation to perform them unless the property falls below this minimum, although future regulations are aiming for 'C' by 2030.
