Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.

Past consents include an extension, change of use to residential, partial demolition and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
