I agree with Mr P in part but Green Loans are available. In addition, investors are now looking at ESG ratings when looking to place their funds which mean lenders will look more closely at an EPC rating and may offer better terms accordingly. However, we are in a supply and demand business which has a big say in property values so it may take time for this to filter through as the EPC will need to be carried out prior to providing a market appraisal and who will pay for them.

Does this table take in to account the cost of employing staff i.e. tax, NI, pensions, car, mobile phone to name but a few of the costs involved. Also there is a big disparity in some firms pay grade between senior management who do just that; manage and and count staff KPI's and don't actually do the job of being an estate agent

This is a flawed proposal for a number of reasons, mainly there are many who struggle to pay their current council tax now, how are they to afford the increase? Secondly, as Prakash says, what about the people who have already paid SDLT, will there be an offset? A tax when you sell is another solution as this is when you can afford it the most, but again what about the SDLT already paid, will there be an offset? The slab structure was wrong, the graded structure is confusing so why not go back to a flat rate of say 5%. The more we sell, the more HMRC gets, simples!!

Something is rotten. Time for a complete change at the top?
