The ACT has the longest-running (since 1999) mandatory disclosure home energy efficiency rating system in the world. If you're about to sell a home in the ACT, you must have an accredited Building Assessor do an Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) assessment, which is then made available to prospective buyers. The Civil Law (Sale of Property) Act 2003 requires all homes being sold in the ACT to carry an energy efficiency rating. This enables owners and buyers to compare a home’s passive energy performance characteristics with others for sale in the Territory.
