Buying a home

Top tasks:

  • Buying your council home
  • Low cost home ownership
  • Shared ownership properties

Many people dream of owning their own home. But raising the money can be difficult - assuming you can find a home that's affordable in the first place.

But there are ways to buy a home without going to your local estate agent. Which? magazine has just published a unique interactive First Time Buyers flowchart. 

If you're a council tenant, you could buy your current home at a discount. And there are a number of schemes from housing associations and others where you can 'part buy/ part rent'. Find out more here.
