Why this appears in seller and landlord workflows
Some properties include commercial elements or tenancies where different certificate types apply than a standard domestic EPC. Getting the wrong certificate wastes time and can mislead marketing.
What to do
- Identify the primary use classes involved.
- Instruct appropriate accredited assessors for the building type.
- Keep records for your agent and solicitor.
