From 2028, they will no longer be classified as “decent accommodation” and will therefore be prohibited for rental.


One year after the promulgation of this law, it will be prohibited, when renewing a lease or re-letting, to increase the rent of these homes classified F and G in energy performance, to the number of 5 million.

The deputies voted Sunday in committee to ban the rental of housing "thermal strainers" in 2028, as provided for by the climate bill which is expected in the hemicycle at the end of March.

From 2028, they will no longer be classified as “decent accommodation” and will therefore be prohibited for rental.

Thus, "one cannot consider as decent a thermal strainer", underlined in front of the deputies the Minister for Housing Emmanuelle Wargon.

She believes that the first step in the rent freeze should be used to "raise awareness of the landlord".

"The law creasing" this criterion of decency and successive governments will not be able to vary it, she opposed to LR deputies who considered that a decree was sufficient.

What steps for tenants?

Both the right and the left have called for strong support measures for owners who have to do work, which is not always easy, the minister having promised announcements on the matter when the bill passes through the chamber.

Reserved as to the effectiveness of the measure, the former Socialist Minister of Ecology Delphine Batho as well as the rebellious Danièle Obono considered that it was up to the tenants, "often precarious, to assert their rights" in court. case of energy-intensive housing, and that it was therefore not a real ban on rental.

But Emmanuelle Wargon like the co-rapporteur Mickaël Nogal (LREM) took issue with them, the former recalling her attachment "to real rights" rather than "formal".

A handful of "walkers" have unsuccessfully demanded that rural areas be excluded from the supervision of rents in 2023.

Conversely, but without further success, the Socialists demanded a 10% drop in rents for F and G classified housing, thereby following a recommendation from the Abbé Pierre Foundation.
