Buying your home
The Right to Buy scheme allows tenants of council owned flats and houses to buy their homes at a discount to the full market value. The discount is based on the number of years spent as a public sector tenant.
- The maximum discount is currently £102,400
You will be taking on new responsibilities as owner including the maintenance and repair of your home. View the right to buy website to check your eligibility.
