EPC Certificate (EPB) in Brussels City

The historic centre of Brussels contains many old buildings (17th to 19th century), often divided into small apartments or studios. The thick stone and brick walls provide a degree of thermal inertia, but the lack of insulation and original single-glazed windows typically yield an EPC score between E and G. For listed buildings, our assessors apply the regulatory standard values for heritage properties.

The Dansaert neighbourhood and the canal area have a strong reconversion dynamic: old warehouses converted into lofts and new eco-friendly residential projects. New builds often achieve EPC A or B. Converted lofts vary more (C to E) depending on the quality of renovation. In this neighbourhood, the EPC certificate is a genuine selling point.

The upscale neighbourhoods around the Sablon and the Avenue Louise feature prestige apartments in bourgeois buildings. These often spacious properties (100 to 200 m²) require detailed EPC certification. Luxury renovations (triple glazing, heat pump, home automation) allow B or C scores, an important asset for resale in this market segment.

The European Quarter features office buildings converted to residential use and recent residences for European civil servants. Building projects after 2010 comply with strict energy standards (EPC A-B). For older converted buildings, the EPC is an essential document, as international tenants pay very close attention to it.
