Responding to an Inside Housing survey, nine large
housing associations revealed they have completed a total of 1,594 Rent to Buy
homes over the past decade but have sold just 180 to the original tenants. Rent to Buy offers a fixed-term tenancy of
usually five years at a discounted rate, with the tenant supposed to buy the
home or a share in it at the end of this period. But the survey results reveal
just 11.3% of tenants were able to do so, with the remainder either continuing
to rent or moving out at the end of this period. Read more on Inside Housing.
