The government’s Right to Buy scheme gives people the opportunity to buy their council home or housing association property at a price discounted below its market value. The maximum discount available to public-sector tenants in England is currently £84,600, rising to £112,800 for those living in London. The scheme works slightly differently in Wales and Northern Ireland, where the maximum discounts are £8,000 and £24,000 respectively.
