Buy Your Council House — The 2026 Guide
Everything you need to know before the rules change.
Free. England only.
The rules on buying your council home are being cut back. The new law is in Parliament right now. It hasn't passed yet so the old rules still apply.
Most tenants don't know that. Most don't know what they'd qualify for either.
Inside the guide:
· How much discount you actually get, with the real numbers for your region
· Whether your kids can buy it with you, and the 12-month rule that decides it
· How the mortgage works when your discount is your deposit
· Getting a mortgage while you're on benefits
· The 8 things that catch people out
· The full step by step, with the deadlines your council has to meetNo jargon. No dream-selling. Just what you need before the window shuts.
