Summary

Under the Right to Buy scheme, you can buy your home at a price lower than the full market value. This is because the length of time you have spent as a tenant entitles you to a discount.

This booklet describes the Right to Buy scheme as it works today, taking account of the changes made by the Housing Act 2004. The information in it applies only to England and Wales. We have tried to make it easy to understand - but it is not a substitute for professional advice.

The foreign language versions of the Your Right to Buy your home booklets have now been discontinued as the demand for them have been extremely low. It is therefore not cost effective to continue producing them.
