Most
Council tenants have "The Right to Buy" their home. The right-to-buy
means you can buy your home from a local authority, a non-charitable housing
association or a housing action trust. Usually this costs less than on the
open market because as the tenant you can obtain a discount.
Do I Qualify?
You may be entitled to a discount off the purchase price of your home. The amount of discount depends on how long you have been a tenant of this Council or other "right to buy" landlord, and the type of dwelling you are living in. What discount will I get? 1. For Houses: The discount after two years is 32% with an additional 1% for every extra year up to a maximum of 60%. 2. Flats: The discount after two years is 44% with an additional 2% for every extra year up to a maximum of 70%. Various mortgage schemes are available which allow capital raising for home improvements. Monthly mortgage payments are often lower than rental costs. |
