Right to Acquire gives tenants the opportunity to purchase their home with a fixed sum discount. To qualify, both the tenant and the property need to be eligible. If you have any questions about eligibility, call our Home Ownership Team on 0300 3300 900, or you can email your query to homeownership@havebury.com. You can also take a look at the Guide to the Right to Acquire from Homes England.
Thinking of buying your Havebury home?Are you living in a flat?
If your property is a flat, it’s important to consider that you will be buying a lease from Havebury and will be responsible for annual service charges. You will also need to pay towards the cost of major repairs or improvements to the block in which you live or its communal areas. In addition, you will be responsible for repairs and maintenance inside your flat. For further information, take a look at the Thinking of Buying your Council Flat booklet.
