Preserved Right to Buy Right to Buy Your Home GuideAre 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.
