Only going to add that RTB is very slow, when we bought ours we started in May and completed end of January, with the current climate I imagine the process to be slower. 
Also definitely reccomend a broker not all lenders will accept the discount as deposit, Barclays for instance wanted £10k deposit. 
Getting additional funds might be difficult for the first 5 years as the council or HA have a charge on the property.
Good luck!

thanks all for the info.

who is a respectable broker?.

I've no idea sorry, I have access to a broker through work. I'd avoid one of these that advertise on the TV though.
