@betty.elizahh: If you live in a council house with your mum or dad, you could actually buy it with them and start building equity instead of paying rent. Here's exactly how Right to Buy works in 2026: your parents apply first, you get added as a joint buyer after 12 months living there, and your income alone can carry the mortgage even if they don't work. Get that sorted and the council discount becomes your deposit, so you could end up paying nothing but solicitor's fees. This is genuinely one of the easiest ways to get on the property ladder right now, but the discount window is shrinking. 🏠

Our council house in London is reaching 600k. It’s outright insanely unaffordable no matter what you do. May as well pay the rent forever 👍

YOU CANNOT SUBLET if you buy a discounted council house. This is made for people who will only ever buy ONE home.

You also get a massive discount the longer you have been a council tenant too. But Labour want to scrap the right to buy! If you can do it, I would say do it asap 🏠

Don’t forget the restrictions should you wish to sell and buy another home for yourself

I did this, literally applied 2 days before the new RTB changes came into effect. Completed the purchase in June this year. As a single parent, it’s the only way I could really get on the home ownership ladder. Even with new changes, in certain areas it’s still worth it. Thanks for sharing ❤️

Not all houses have right to buy! Ours doesn’t. They sold a lot of the older ones and then stopped it.

Downside is when you want to buy your next property with your partner the stamp duty isn’t worth it! Gotta remove your name and hope your mortgage lender accepts your partner as first time buyer 👀

Tbh the incentive to do it now isn’t as high as it was 2 years ok. My discount was 50%, now I think it’s like 8%
