As electric vehicles (EVs) grow in popularity, homes with easy access to chargers are becoming more desirable.
Here's what to consider before buying:
-
Nearby Public Chargers: Essential for city dwellers or if you can't install one at home.
-
Home Installation Possibility: Check whether you can install an EV charger. Flats, leaseholds, or listed buildings often have restrictions.
-
Planning Permissions: Some areas require approval for external installations like chargers.
-
Future Value: Even if you don't drive an EV today, future buyers will likely expect charger access.
Getkeys reports reveal nearby public chargers and highlight any planning restrictions related to EV installations.
Tip: Ask your solicitor to confirm installation rights, especially for flats or shared driveways.
