Right to buy

Side view of a Council house new build

Buying your home is a big decision. You should think about the responsibilities, costs and financial commitments of home ownership. You can find out more in the right to buy booklet[pdf document]

You could be eligible to buy your home:

  • if you have a secure tenancy and have been a public sector tenant for three years
  • if your property is not excluded from the Right to Buy Scheme
  • if your property is not suitable for the elderly. For example properties within a Good Neighbour Scheme or Sheltered Housing Schemes

You should always get independent financial and legal advice before buying your home.

The government’s right to buy service offers free and impartial advice. This is to help you through the process of buying your home. If you decide home ownership is right for you, you can find out more about the right to buy agent service [external link].
