Property Diagnostics: An Essential Step
Are you planning to sell or rent your property? A property diagnostic is a legal requirement that allows you to inform potential buyers or tenants about the condition of your home.
Why get a property diagnostic?
- Safety: Diagnostics help detect the presence of harmful substances (asbestos, lead, etc.) and verify the compliance of your electrical and gas installations.
- Compliance: By carrying out all mandatory diagnostics, you ensure that you comply with current regulations and avoid any risk of legal disputes.
- Value: A property diagnostic reassures buyers or tenants and can help you sell or rent your property more quickly.
What are the mandatory diagnostics?
- Energy Performance Certificate (EPC): This assesses the energy consumption of your home.
- Asbestos survey: This searches for materials or products containing asbestos.
- Lead risk assessment: This concerns properties built before 1949.
- Electrical installation assessment: This verifies the compliance of your electrical installation.
- Gas installation assessment: This concerns gas installations over 15 years old.
- Natural and technological hazards report: This provides information on natural, mining, or technological risks.
- Depending on the area, the presence of termites is sought.
