EPC certificate (rental)
Required when renting out a residential unit. We draw up the certificate for you.
Renting checklist
Renting out? We get the file ready.
As a landlord you need the EPC certificate, a walkthrough report and sometimes an electrical inspection — and your EPC label partly determines how you can index the rent. EPC Lochristi delivers and arranges that paperwork; the actual letting stays with you.

FAQ
Answers about renting and rent indexation.
Practical explanation of the documents that often come together when you rent out a home.
Is an EPC needed if I only rent out, without selling?
Yes, the EPC certificate is required when renting out a residential unit; we draw up the certificate for you.
What is a walkthrough report and why does it matter?
A walkthrough report records the condition of the property at the start of the tenancy, so disputes at the end of the lease stay smaller.
Is an electrical inspection required for rental?
That depends on the installation; we look into it for your file and coordinate the inspection through our network where needed.
How does my EPC label relate to rent indexation?
With EPC label A+, A, B or C you can usually index in full; other labels fall under the current Flemish correction factors. More details on our rent indexation page.
Does EPC Lochristi also arrange the lease itself?
We bring the contract and follow-up documents together clearly in your file, so the rental doesn't start with scattered documents.
