Right to Buy Nottingham Solicitors
Right to Buy
You could be eligible to buy your property through the Right to Buy scheme if:
- The property is your main home/only place of residence
- You are a secure tenant.
- The property is self-contained.
- For three years you have had a public sector landlord, such as a council, housing association or the NHS Trust.
- You are making a joint application with someone who shares your tenancy.
- You are making a joint application with up to three family members who have lived with you for at least a year.
- Whilst you were living in the property it was owned by the council before being sold to another landlord.
You may be entitled to a discount ranging from 35-60% for a flat or 50-70% for a house; this can often vary depending on the length of time you have been a tenant in the property, the type of property and the total value of the property.
At Rotheras we have helped numerous clients to purchase their council house or housing association property through Right to Buy.
Why use Rotheras for Right to Buy?
We have a wealth of experience in making applications for Right to Buy and dealing with local councils in regards to applications.
We can advise you on any surveys to be carried out that the local authority has requested.

Chris Powell at Rotheras was recommended to us by a trusted associate within the Transport Industry; without doubt we wouldn’t have had the excellent outcome we did without his and his team’s involvement. The level of professionalism, expert advice and assistance was faultless; we felt reassured and well informed throughout the whole process. It was a pleasure to do business with him and would highly recommend his services!

The team at Rotheras, and Mr Powell in particular, have provided us with an outstanding service. We are extremely grateful for the help and support they gave us in dealing with issues relating to our transport operations and our goods vehicle operators licence. Mr Powell was professional, knowledgable, efficient and effective. He quickly understood our business and the problem we had. He responded with sensible advice and acted quickly on our behalf to resolve the matter. I cannot thank him enough for his help and I would recommend Mr Powell, and the Rotheras team, without hesitation. I am extremely grateful for the help they gave us.

I would highly recommend James Briggs, solicitor at Rotheras. He has been extremely helpful, patient and thorough whilst helping me with affairs following the death of my husband. Even during lockdown (covid) he maintained communication and kept me informed of what was happening. He successfully achieved the outcome I needed and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

We are in the middle of launching our own packaging agency and contacted Rotheras for some professional legal advice with regards to contracts. After an initial call with Billy, he made it clear what we needed and asked plenty of questions to understand what it was we needed. He was very responsive to our questions, whether it be over the phone or via emails and made the process really simple. We had little experience in this area so it was fantastic to work with Billy, who explained everything concisely. We were also really pleased with the quick turnaround and great value offered. Would thoroughly recommend working with Rotheras.
