Energy label
The energy label now has a direct influence on your maximum mortgage amount. The higher the energy label (for example A or B), the more money you can borrow. The idea is that people with an energy-efficient home have lower energy costs. This gives them more financial resources to finance a more expensive house.
With a lower energy label you can borrow more for energy-saving measures.
