Right to buy

What is the Right to Buy scheme?

The Right to Buy scheme helps social tenants in England and Wales buy their council home at a discount.

You can apply for Right to Buy if you’ve been a council or public sector tenant for 3 years (it doesn’t have to be 3 years in a row). You are a public sector tenant if you have lived in properties provided by a housing association, the armed services or a public body.

You can make a ‘joint application’ to buy your home through Right to Buy with someone who shares the tenancy with you or with up to 3 family members. They must have lived with you for the past 12 months.
