Does a housing association customer have the Right to Buy?

Most housing association tenants do not have the Right to Buy (RTB). However, if you were a secure council tenant and were living in your home when it was transferred from your council to another landlord, like a housing association, then you may have a ‘Preserved’ Right to Buy.

If you have the Preserved Right to Buy, then you can buy your home under the scheme in the same way as if you were still a council tenant.

You can find more information on the Government’s website on Right to Buy
