Purchase Your Council House

If you have been a council house tenant for between two and five years you could qualify for the right to buy programme. This discounted property buying scheme is targeted at long term council tenants and gives everyone who is eligible the chance to become a home owner. Once you apply for the chance to buy your council home and are (hopefully) accepted, you will get sent a section 125 notice. This is an important document detailing the value of your home and what discount you will get off the Open Market Value (or OMV for short). This will depend on your council and can be anything between £16,000 and £38,000. Mrs Z. Graham of Haltwhistle bought her housing association flat for £32,000 cheaper than the market value.

As soon as you know how much you'll need to pay for your council house or flat you can get a Right To Buy mortgage. Only certain mortgage lenders will offer a right to buy mortgage (big banks like Bank of Scotland or Alliance & Leicester) so it may be best to go to a right to buy mortgage broker who should guide you in the right direction. The whole process normally takes just a few months to complete.
