51% of the energy performance certificates lodged across Caterham's postcode districts are below band C (10,339 certificates). Clarity measures areas rather than individual homes, so this is the share of the local stock likely to need energy-efficiency work before it meets a band C standard, not a survey of any one property.
A buy-to-let at £420,000 pays £32,000 in Stamp Duty Land Tax, including the 5% surcharge on additional homes.
The five-year forecast quoted above (Savills, South East) is a regional figure for South East as a whole, not a forecast for Tandridge, and Clarity does not rank on it.
