What is council house purchase?

Depending on where you live in the UK there are several options available if you’re looking to purchase your own council house (or buy a new property from your local authority). The Right to Buy scheme was introduced in England in 1980. This allows council tenants to buy their property if they have lived in it for over two years (the longer you have lived there, the cheaper the cost to buy). This initiative has helped over a million people get a foot on the property ladder.
