The Right to Buy policy

The Right to Buy policy allows eligible tenants in public or council housing to purchase their home at a discounted price, based on factors like how long they've rented there and the property's value. This policy aims to give tenants the opportunity to own their home, fostering a sense of ownership and stability. While it offers financial benefits, it may decrease available public housing for others. Overall, it balances tenants' rights to buy their homes with broader housing needs and policy considerations.
