Right to Buy Mortgage - Do You
Qualify?
Many council tenants don't realise they have the right to buy
their home, or that they can expect a discount roughly proportional
to the number of years they have been paying rent:
- Secure tenant of a UK local authority for more than 2 years, or
for tenants registered on or after 18 January 2005, must be
continuous tenants for 5 years
- Assured tenant of a registered UK landlord or housing
association and formally a secure tenant at the same address prior
to change of ownership
- Accommodation not provided in connection with your employment,
age or in some cases, disability
