Some Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) do not require an Energy Performance Certificate. If you are letting your property to individual tenants on separate tenancy agreements, for example, on a room-by-room basis, an EPC is not legally required.
An EPC must be issued when a property is being sold or let as a whole property. If the property is an HMO and all tenants are on the same tenancy agreement, an EPC is legally required.
