What is Right to Buy?
Right to Buy is a government scheme designed to give eligible public sector tenants in England the opportunity to buy their home at a discounted price. The size of the discount depends on how long you have been a tenant.
Who is Eligible for the Government’s Right to Buy Scheme?
You may be eligible to buy your home under Right to Buy if you fulfil the following criteria:
- You are a council tenant OR you were a council tenant when your home was transferred to your current public sector landlord
- You have been a public sector tenant for a minimum of 3 years
- The property is your only or main home
- You don’t share the property with anyone besides members of your household
- You are not a tenant in sheltered accommodation (Either for elderly or disabled people)
- Your home is not scheduled to be demolished
If you have rent arrears within the past 12 months, you are unlikely to be considered for the scheme
Why will having a poor credit record make it difficult for me to get a Right to Buy mortgage?
Lenders use the credit histories of mortgage applicants to assess whether or not they present a high risk.
Essentially, they want to make sure that you repay your mortgage loan. A history of events such as missed payments, loan defaults or CCJs, may show that you may find it hard to meet your financial obligations in the future. However, the picture is more complex than simply saying ‘if you have a low credit score you won’t get a mortgage’. Lenders look at many factors and your credit history is just part of the picture. At Simply Adverse we understand how your credit report could negatively impact your mortgage application, but we also know how to maximise your chances of a successful application.

Can I still get a mortgage if my Right to Buy property is in a high-rise building?
Flats in high-rise buildings aren’t specifically excluded from the Right to Buy scheme. However, some mortgage lenders may have their own limits on the type of property they will lend for. Your mortgage broker will ensure that you apply to the appropriate lender for your property.
Can I let out my RTB property after I buy it?
Once you buy your Right to Buy property there are no restrictions on whether or not you can rent it out. If you intend to let it out immediately after purchase, you will need a specific buy-to-let mortgage. This type of mortgage has different criteria to standard mortgages and you may find it more difficult to secure one for your Right to Buy property, particularly with a history of adverse credit.
