46% of the energy performance certificates lodged across Huntingdon's postcode districts are below band C (33,827 certificates).

A buy-to-let at £227,000 pays £13,390 in Stamp Duty Land Tax, including the 5% surcharge on additional homes.

The five-year forecast quoted above (Savills, East of England) is a regional figure for East of England as a whole, not a forecast for Huntingdonshire, and Clarity does not rank on it.
