Discounts available for the right to buy scheme

What discounts are available?

The right to buy scheme gives tenants a discount on the market value of their homes. The longer you have been a tenant, the more discount you can get. The maximum discount available varies, depending on which region of the country you live in.

Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council forms part of the East Midlands region where the government has set the current maximum discount to £102,400 for any qualifying applications received before 21 November 2024. Any qualifying applications received after 21 November 2024 will only be eligible for the revised maximum discount of £24,000. 

The right to buy calculator (ownyourhome.gov.uk) will help give you a rough idea of what discount you may be entitled to.
