Choose your housing type:

The answer to this question depends on what type of tenant or owner you are.
 

Most tenants don't have a right to buy the homes they rent from us. 

You might have a right to buy your property if you’re a housing association tenant, or were previously a council tenant and now an A2Dominion tenant, depending on how long you’ve been a tenant. Under the government's Right to Buy or Right to Acquire schemes you could have:

  • A Preserved Right to Buy if you have a secure tenancy and live in one of the properties that we bought from the council after 31 March 1997
  • A Right to Acquire if you've been living in your home for more than 3 years and your home is eligible for buying.

For either one, the home you want to buy must be your main home.

You will need to think about the cost of buying and how you will fund it. You can get an estimate of what it might cost by visiting the Own Your Home website. You should also consider the cost of:

  • Conveyancing fees
  • Mortgage fees
  • Land Registry fees
  • Stamp duty land tax

There will be ongoing monthly costs such as mortgage repayments, buildings insurance and variable service charges too. If you can, speak to a financial advisor who can offer further, independent advice.

To get started, you will need to:
