How will social housing retrofitting regulations impact my existing buy-to-let properties and compliance in 2026?
Quick Answer
Social housing retrofitting regulations don't directly apply to private buy-to-let properties. However, landlords must focus on upcoming EPC changes, particularly the proposed 'C' rating by 2030, which could mirror elements of social housing standards.
