A HOUSEBUILDER is all set to host an event to educate those looking to make positive sustainable changes in 2023 and move to an energy-efficient new home this year.

Leading housebuilder Redrow is opening its doors to host a series of educational events across the Southern Counties region

New research from Redrow reveals that three-quarters (74 per cent) of UK adults admit living in an energy-efficient home is more important to them now compared to a year ago. However, nearly a third (29 per cent) believe they are unable to make their home more energy efficient as their house is too old. This may be why nearly half (49 per cent) would consider moving to a new build home due to the energy-efficient features already installed.

Between January 14 and 22 Redrow will be welcoming prospective buyers to its community of homes at Cromwell Court in Basingstoke, helping everyone to understand the energy costs that could be saved with better Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings, and how the Government’s sustainability and environmental targets will impact them as homeowners.

Future homebuyers will also be able to use Redrow’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) calculator tool, which is designed to help people compare the energy savings to their current properties and highlight the benefits of a newbuild home.

Mark Vanson, sales director at Redrow Southern Counties, said: “Our research shows people are more eco-conscious than ever before and are looking at ways to be even more energy efficient, especially in relation to their homes. Our homes are designed to help people save money on household bills, with the average Redrow home being B-rated, saving homeowners an average of £2,600 a year on energy bills."
