City Of Portland

This outlines the City of Portland's mandate that most sellers of single-family homes must acquire and disclose a home energy score when selling their property. Exemptions may apply to mobile, manufactured, floating homes, and multi-family units with stacked configurations, as well as individual homeowners facing unique situations like foreclosure, properties deemed uninhabitable, or significant hardship. The Home Energy Score evaluates a home's energy efficiency through an on-site inspection of its features, rather than the actual energy consumption of its current residents.

Intake Procedure: For more details, visit the website or call.

Fees: There is no charge for information; however, the cost of the Home Energy Assessment can vary. Check the website for a list of authorized Home Energy Assessors.
