Energieausweis Expired

What does it mean?

This energy certificate's 10-year validity has lapsed. Its figures are out of date, and the seller is legally required to present a valid Energieausweis at sale — so a new one will have to be commissioned.

Is this a problem when buying?

Something to clarify before buying. Not an automatic deal-breaker, but worth checking.

What you should do as a buyer

Ask the seller for a current, valid Energieausweis before signing. Do not rely on the expired figures for your heating-cost or modernisation estimate.
