Energy Rating - Enhanced resale Value due to high energy efficiency

Building Energy Rating (BER)

Dealg Bán will be built to the very high Building Energy Rating (BER) energy standard B1, protecting and enhancing the future value of your home, while also dramatically reducing your annual energy bill.

What is a Building Energy Rating (BER)? And why is important to buy a home with a high BER rating?
A Building Energy Rating or BER is similar to the energy label on your fridge with a scale of A-G.
A-rated homes are the most energy efficient and G the least efficient.

From 2008 every home owner will be required to obtain a Building Energy Rating (BER) certificate if they intend to sell or rent their home.
This rating will enable home buyers to take energy performance and energy costs into consideration when purchasing or renting a new home. Anyone buying a house will be able to check the energy efficiency of the house and get a good indication of the annual running costs. It enables house hunters to compare the energy performance of two different houses they are considering purchasing.

This awareness of energy rating is lightly to be a very important consideration for buyers in the future. An A rated home should have a considerable sales advantage over a lower energy rated house in the future.
