The Right to Buy Scheme has provided the chance for tenants to buy their council property partially discounted, subject to the applicant’s eligibility.
The discounted price can be influenced by the property's market value, the length of time you've been a public sector tenant, the location you are in and the type of property you are buying.
Specific calculations can vary, so it's always worth checking with someone to know the specifics of what you may be entitled to.
The criteria that you need to meet to be eligible for the scheme includes you renting for at least 3 years from the local council or housing association and you also have to be secure tenants of council property.
Your 3 years of renting do not have to continuous, however, this does depend on to your personal circumstance. This is why a mortgage advice in Derby can be helpful to see if you are eligible.
Alternately, to keep yourself updated with the rules and regulations, you can also check out the government Own Your Home website.
When it comes to utilising the Right to Buy Scheme, the property will be first valued at full market price and before purchase will be when the government discount will be applied.
