Right To Acquire
Everything you need to know about the Right to Acquire your home
Buying your home
You may qualify to buy your home under the Right to Acquire scheme. If you have been a tenant living in a housing association or council-owned house for more than three years, you may be able to buy your home at a discounted rate.
It will also depend on when your home was purchased or built and how it was funded. We will be able to tell you if you qualify.
What discount is offered for homes bought through the Right to Acquire scheme?
It depends on the location of the property and its value on the open market. This is determined by a Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors qualified surveyor.
At the moment, the discount available for our area is £10,000.
