What is the Right to Buy Mortgage Scheme?

The Right to Buy scheme is a government initiative that allows eligible council or housing association tenants to purchase their property at a discounted rate. This provides an invaluable opportunity for tenants to step onto the property ladder and own the home they’ve been living in.

At Airborne Mortgages, we specialise in facilitating Right to Buy Mortgages, ensuring you make the most of this significant homeownership scheme.

As a mortgage is secured against your home, it could be repossessed if you do not keep up the mortgage repayments.

In UK homeownership, tenants are presented with two prominent avenues: the Right to Buy and the Right to Acquire schemes. While both share the objective of assisting individuals to purchase their homes at a discounted rate, there are many key differences between Right to Buy and Right to Acquire that shape your decision-making process.

Right to Buy, applicable to council tenants, demands a minimum period of public sector tenancy, often around three years, and necessitates the property to serve as the tenant’s primary residence. In contrast, Right to Acquire targets housing association tenants, requiring a qualifying residency period, usually ranging from three to five years.

The discount structures vary based on factors such as location and property type. Both avenues necessitate careful consideration of financial aspects, including mortgage affordability and ongoing homeownership costs. Furthermore, homeowners must navigate resale conditions and potential repayment obligations tied to the initial discount.
