a relative in the uk is just in the process of buying a home. now, even when you look at the real estate ads on line, you can see not only how the house is rated to perform but also what the rater's estimate is of how it could perform if various energy saving actions were taken.

Of course it is still buyer beware and buyers aren't obliged to take notice of the information but a sensible buyer when trying to choose between two houses should be taking the information into account.
