DPE F and G: “The condominium refuses the work, so I will illegally praise”

Owner lessor of accommodation noted F on the DPE, Armand will no longer have the right to rent it from 2028. Not having the means to lose its rental income or to sell off, he plans to continue the Rent after 2028, despite the ban.

Framework in the automobile, Armand does not really have the profile of a outlaw. He could nevertheless become. Landlord From a three-room apartment in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, this thirty-something will not have no longer the right to rent it From January 1, 2028. “That is to say tomorrow!”he panics. This prohibition is provided for by the August 2021 climate and resilience law for the housing noted F on the diagnosis of energy performance (DPE), like that of Armand. It has already entered into force on January 1, 2025 for the goods classified G, that is to say the worst Thermal TOCKSand it will strike housing E in 2034.

Armand judges this qualifier “thermal coach»Exaggerated for his property: “This apartment, I lived it for three years before leaving the region and renting it, it did not cost me in heating!” It is however the loss of heat linked to its situation, on the top floor of the condominiumunder a flat roof, which earned him his bad note on the DPE, according to the diagnostician. According to the latter, only an insulation of the roof of the building would hoist the note of Armand’s apartment in D, which would shelter him from any prohibition on the rental of thermal colanders.

Thermal colander discount

Except that “The energy audit of the condominium highlights a building whose energy performance is good, with accommodation predominantly rated D. It will therefore be very hard to have insulation work on the flat roof, no other co -owner is there favorable, especially since the majority of them are Owners Occupants and not donors “laments the young man.

The diagnostician suggested another solution to him: thermal insulation from the inside. While recognizing that this might not be enough to bear the DPE note to D. “And then, if I visit with a thickness of 20 to 40 centimeters, It will make me lose square meterswhich will even more devalue my apartment, which already undergoes a Thermal colander discount Compared to the better rated housing ”sighs Armand.

10 files for rental candidates received in 24 hours

But the young manager has no choice. To buy a new apartment in the region where he settled, he must sell the first or continue to rent it so that the perceived rent finances the monthly credit that he has not finished reimbursing. A rent that Armand has, in passing, no longer the right to increase since August 24, 2022, under, still, the climate and resilience law. “JI am in an impasse. My apartment is strongly devalued for sale and I am dependent on illusory work to continue renting it from 2028 ”he sums up. Refusing to sell off his property, he “Places to rent it illegally after January 1, 2028”. “I would be wrong to deprive myself: during the last change of tenant, I received Ten 24 -hour application files. People will be too happy to have found an apartment to assign me in court on the grounds that I rent a thermal coland ”he concludes, bitter.

The only reason for hope: Senator Amel Gacquerre has just tabled a bill taking up that of the Bastien Marchive and Inaki Echaniz deputies, who provided for the housing in co -ownership of derogations to the calendar of prohibition of the rental of thermal colanders, in particular In the event of opposition from co -owners to work. A text that its authors failed to have adopted by the National Assembly a few weeks ago. Perhaps the senatorial bill will be more successful in Parliament.
