Low cost homeownership

Purchasing a property at open market value has become increasingly difficult for many people. Low cost homeownership schemes are designed to help first-time buyers who can’t afford to buy on the open market to get onto the housing ladder.

If you wish to register for low cost homeownership you will need to complete the online housing application form.

For further information on low cost homeownership, please visit the council’s website.

 

Intermediate renting

Intermediate renting is operated by housing associations only.  It provides you with the opportunity to rent your property first before taking up the option to buy it outright at a later date.  Rents are normally set at or around local housing allowance level for the property size.

If you wish to register for intermediate renting you will need to complete the online housing application form.

For further information on intermediate renting please contact the housing association directly.
