Petition Action

Allow people the right to buy their council / housing association houses.

Petition Details

The right to buy was abolished in wales and the only help now is the home ownership scheme assisting you to buy a new build only. This discriminates people who want to remain in the home they love and want to continue to live in.
Bring back the right to buy to give people the opportunity to buy.

Additional Information

It will give people less fortunate and not able to afford a high deposit a chance to buy their homes.
It makes more sense to sell off old housing stock that costs a lot to maintain than a new build that won’t have a lot of repairs for years to come.
People who want to remain in their homes should be given the opportunity to purchase them especially after paying rent for years on the property.
