What is the Right to Buy Scheme?

Right to Buy is a government scheme that gives social tenants in England and Wales the opportunity to purchase their council time at a reduced price.

The initiative is available to those who have been a council or public sector tenant for at least five years in total.

The discount available through the scheme is based on the length of time for which you have been a tenant, the type of property you are living in and the location of the property.

However, the initiative is not open to you if:

• The property is not your main home
• You have been told by the courts to leave the property
• You are being declared bankrupt or you are an undischarged bankrupt
• The property is not self-contained
• You owe money to creditors
