From Saturday April 1, an energy audit will be required in the event of the sale of a very energy-intensive house. Who is affected by this new obligation? The details of David Boéri, live on the set of 19/20, Thursday March 30.
This is a new step in the hunt for thermal colanders, “in other words, all individual houses and collective dwellings that are classified F or G, the worst rating in terms of insulation and energy consumption“, specifies the journalist David Boéri, present on the set of 19/20, Thursday March 30. “From April 1, this audit must be presented to potential buyers, as soon as they visit the property, but beware: condominiums are not affected. These are only properties sold by a single owner”continues David Boéri.
The audit must propose work options
“This audit must also offer, at a minimum, two options for renovation work so that the accommodation is no longer a thermal sieve, specifying each time their nature and their cost”says the journalist. Who is qualified to carry out these studies? “You can contact a design office, a real estate diagnostician, or an architectural firm. All must be trained and qualified. The list is available on the official France-renov website.govt.Fr”concludes David Boéri.
