Added to that, the latest house price index from the REA and Irish Independent shows properties with an ‘A’ or ‘B’ Energy Rating, are selling for 12% more than lower-rated properties.
Some of the reasons for the gap include the current energy crisis and the price of an upgrade going up, due to the price of building materials.
