*Important reminder – Barclays Green Home Mortgages

To be eligible for one of our Green Home products, The home must be a new build and have an energy efficiency rating of 81 or higher, or be energy efficiency band A or B.

There’s no other specific eligibility criteria, and the application process is the same as with any other purchase, but applicants will need one of the following to prove the property’s energy efficiency rating

• For fully built properties, a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
• A valid Predicted Energy Assessment (PEA) certificate if the property is still being built

House builders can verbally confirm the property’s energy efficiency rating straight away, and applicants can use this to progress their application. They’ll still need to send us an eligible EPC or PEA, and should aim to do this as soon as possible. We won’t be able to complete their mortgage without one of these documents.
