What is sustainable property investing?

Sustainable property investing involves applying principles of sustainability to real estate investment decisions. It goes beyond traditional considerations of location, size, and potential for capital appreciation to include environmental, social, and economic factors.

Are there any incentives to sustainable investing?

Investing in sustainable properties comes with various financial benefits. Lenders may offer incentives like reduced interest rates or cashback for properties achieving specific Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings or undergoing upgrades. 

Beyond immediate gains, there's the potential for capital appreciation, helping offset costs and meeting higher demand in a power-cost-intensive market. 

In the challenging Buy-To-Let market, focusing on sustainability can not only improve rental yields but also serve as a forward-thinking strategy for future-proofing investments, ultimately leading to overall cost reduction.
