First of all, it serves to raise awareness among owners and future buyers of the issues of ecological and energy transition. It then directs towards a set of relevant works to improve energy performance via several scenarios. But when is it mandatory?  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Detached house: a mandatory audit for the sale of a thermal sieve.<\/h3>\n\n<p>Until now, only the energy performance certificate (DPE) was mandatory in the context of a property sale. With the strengthening of the legislation on thermal strainers, the DPE has been accompanied by an energy audit since 1 April 2023.<\/p>\n\n<p>Not all property is affected by this measure. The following must comply:  <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Real estate (detached houses in metropolitan France) classified F or G by the DPE (qualified as &#8220;thermal sieves&#8221;), when they are put up for sale;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Properties for which the signature of the promise to sell (or deed of sale) was made on or after April 1, 2023<sup>(1)<\/sup>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>However, this measure is intended to be gradually expanded. Homes classified F or G located in the overseas departments and regions will be concerned from 1 July 2024, while homes classified E will have to comply with this measure from 1 January 2025. D-rated single-ownership homes will have to carry out a mandatory energy audit from 1 January 2034.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The obligation to carry out an energy audit in order to benefit from aid (MaPrimeR\u00e9nov&#8217; S\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9)<\/h3>\n\n<p>Another situation in which carrying out an energy audit is mandatory is the application for aid conditional on proof of real energy savings after work (such as MaPrimeR\u00e9nov&#8217; S\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9). In fact, for your application to be eligible, the minimum energy gain obtained after work must be 55%. To prove this, an energy audit is therefore imperative.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The content of the energy audit<\/h3>\n\n<p>The content of the energy audit is also regulated by law. It should include:  <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An inventory of the property for sale;  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An assessment of the current energy performance of the lot;  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At least two work scenarios to be carried out in several stages or in a single stage (to upgrade F or G dwellings to class C or to upgrade E or D dwellings to class B);  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The first step must lead to a gain of at least one class, and at least a class E (except for special constraints);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accuracy of expected energy savings;  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An estimate of the costs of the work;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A reminder of possible public aid.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Entrust the energy audit to a Thermal Design Office (BET)<\/h3>\n\n<p>An energy audit can&#8217;t be done by just anyone. The legislation specifies that only qualified, impartial professionals who are independent of the owner can carry out an energy audit.<\/p>\n\n<p>For single-family homes, you can call on design offices and companies qualified as &#8220;Energy Audit in Single-Family Houses&#8221; (OPQIBI 1911 qualification). These companies must be certified as &#8220;RGE global offer&#8221;. Real estate diagnosticians must also be certified, i.e. in possession of a certificate issued by a certification body, which must be attached to their audit.<\/p>\n\n<p>Owners of single-ownership buildings must apply to the &#8220;Energy audit of buildings (tertiary and\/or collective housing)&#8221; design offices (OPQIBI 1905 qualification). Societies of architects and architects registered with the Order and who have undergone training can also assist them on this subject.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the penalties for sellers who do not audit?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Neither the climate law &#8220;combating climate change and strengthening resilience to its effects&#8221;, nor the decrees and orders provide for sanctions for the moment in the event of sale without audit.<\/p>\n\n<p>Beware, however, of potential buyers&#8217; mistrust of an owner who does not comply with his legal obligations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 10 days&#8217; time, on 1 April 2023, we will be faced with a new obligation for the implementation of the energy audit.
