flag Halifax will adjust mortgage affordability based on a home's energy efficiency starting December 10.

flag Halifax, a major UK bank, will start considering a home's Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating when calculating mortgage affordability starting December 10. flag Homes with higher EPC ratings (A/B) may see an increase in the maximum loan amount, while those with lower ratings (F/G) may see a decrease. flag This move aims to encourage energy efficiency and could affect the mortgage market, making it more affordable for some homeowners. flag Santander also recently adjusted its mortgage affordability rates, potentially allowing customers to borrow more.
