With Kivlo

Kivlo takes each property's DPE into account.

In F or G, Kivlo blocks the rent review. It flags an unknown class and warns you when your DPE is about to expire.

Frequently asked questions

Energy rating and letting: your questions.

Homes let as a main residence, unfurnished or furnished, under the law of 6 July 1989. Since 1 January 2025 in mainland France, a G-rated home is no longer decent housing; F follows on 1 January 2028 and E on 1 January 2034 (article 6 of the law). In a co-owned building, a judge cannot order the works if the landlord shows the level could not be reached despite their efforts to have the common-area works voted and the works done in their own unit (article 20-1); the judge can still reduce the rent.

No. The ban applies when a lease is signed, renewed or tacitly renewed. A lease in progress continues, but the tenant can demand the home be brought up to standard, and a judge can order works or reduce the rent.

Since 24 August 2022 in mainland France, the rent of an F or G home can no longer be revised with the IRL, nor raised at renewal or re-letting. The freeze applies to leases signed, renewed or tacitly renewed since that date.

In Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Réunion and Mayotte, G homes stop being decent housing on 1 January 2028 and F homes on 1 January 2031. No date is set for E. The F and G rent freeze applies there since 1 July 2024.

Yes, for a home heated by electricity: the electricity coefficient went from 2.3 to 1.9 on 1 January 2026 (arrêté of 13 August 2025) and will go to 1.7 on 1 January 2027 (arrêté of 19 August 2026). The gain is not automatic: one class in most cases, two in rare cases for a small home. A DPE stays valid for 10 years; if it improves, you update it free of charge on ADEME's DPE observatory, with its number, with no new visit.

The housing bill (projet de loi visant la relance et la décentralisation du logement), passed by the Senate on 8 July 2026, would allow F and G homes to be let again against a commitment to works. Until the National Assembly passes it and it is published, the current calendar applies. We update the tool as soon as it is published.
