    My question is are bungalows excluded from this scheme full stop?

    Have you asked your council?

    No not yet, I'm just in early stages of thinking this all through.

    But I read this online anyway regarding tenancy agreement.

    "Making a joint application

    You don’t have to do it alone – you may be able to make a joint application for Right to Buy. If you’re eligible, you might be able to buy your home with:
    • Someone who shares your tenancy
    • Your spouse or civil partner
    • Up to 3 family members who’ve lived with you for the past 12 months. They don’t have to be on your tenancy agreement but it must be their main home"

    So why ask here?

    Ask the council /HA and they'll respond accordingly.

    Hi,

    Um you didn't seem to like my question as soon as I posted.

    I asked if a Bungalows are excluded in general from right to buy. Now you have quoted something I responded to about tenancy agreement in reply to someone else.

    I can see your an active member on the forum, but can I ask you slow down posting read correctly and stop making silly comments.

    Thanks

    No.

    And to answer your question. Ask your council. End.

    Marksoton,
    has the budget upset you? you are being particularly churlish this evening.
    Unfortunately, Snappyfish seems to be on the receiving end of your ill-humour, despite the fact that she does appear to actually qualify for the right to buy (which is unusual on this forum)!

    Nope. And i've seen no evidence they are a "she".

    As for your other assumptions.. ;)

    I hope bungalows are exempt. This housing is badly needed for elderly/Disabled and should be keot
    OP. If you have a stash of cash for renovations go and buy from the private sector oe rent and leave the bungalow for someone who really is in need.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Marksoton, You are right of course - apologies to snappyfish for my assumption of gender (i'd put a smiley in here but I don't know how)!!

    teehee
