    Thank you. Very helpful I did in fact buy resale from a housing association. Does this make any difference? 
    So you took the grant of a new lease from the housing association?

    If so, that would make a big difference.

    No. Sorry I don’t know what that is. I simply purchased a resale property from a housing association the original occupant bought it as a new build and I took over. . So probably your first answer is the one I need.
