The Right to Buy scheme was introduced by the government to allow people living in council-owned properties the opportunity to buy them at a discounted price.
The discounted price can be influenced by the property’s market value, the length of time you’ve been a public sector tenant, the location you are in and the type of property you are buying.
The specific calculations can vary, so it’s always worth checking with someone to know the specifics of what you may be entitled to.
You are eligible for the Right to Buy scheme if you are a secure tenant of council property and have spent at least 3 years as a public sector tenant. These three years don’t have to be consecutive.
There are multiple factors that will determine what price you will pay for the property.
The government are most likely to take into account things like how long you’ve lived there, where you are in the country and how long you’ve been a council tenant etc.
For an accurate figure, please get in touch with our mortgage advisors in Halifax.
Alternately, to keep yourself updated with the rules and regulations, you can also check out the government Own Your Home website.
One big advantage of a Right to Buy mortgage is that it is most likely that there is already equity in the house, this could knock some off your house price or be used as part of your deposit.
Often when purchasing a Right to Buy you will be a first time buyer, we love working with first time buyers!
