You can sell your home on the open market at any time.
If you sell it within five years of buying it under the Right to Buy scheme, you must pay back some of the discount we gave you off the original purchase price.
Pre-sale information
When you sell your home your solicitor will normally have to ask us for various “pre-assignment” information, including details of the lease, buildings insurance, service charge payments and future costs.
We will provide this information for a fee. Costs depend on whether you choose our standard or express service.
Standard – we will provide the information within ten working days of receiving the correct fee.
Express – we will provide the information within five working days of receiving the correct fee.
Contact us for information about the current fees.
You must pay for the work that we do when you transfer the lease. You must also pay any charges you owe before you sell your home.
Ask your solicitor to contact us as early as possible before the lease is transferred. This will help to ensure we have enough time to prepare the pre-assignment information.
