Right to Buy
The Right to Buy scheme is a government operated scheme that helps eligible council and housing association tenants in England to buy their home with a discount.
On the Government website you can find out if you could be eligible, what discount you might get and whether you can afford to buy – and how to take the next steps if you decide to apply.
For more information, please visit Right to Buy.
You can provisionally check your eligibility as well as start the application process.
Once you have completed the form, just send it to us using the information found in our Frequently Asked Questions below.

PLEASE NOTE: Inspection is an essential part of all Right to Buy applications as determined by law, and in accordance with the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors regulations.
We recognise there are those who have significant personal issues lying behind their Right To Buy applications. In order to help, any gaps emerging in our scheduled inspection programme are used to assist in this way. When these gaps will emerge is not known, but when one appears we will endeavour to contact you to arrange an appointment to visit.
