What is the Low Cost Housing Scheme?

The low cost housing scheme provides properties for sale, at a reduced price. The level of discount varies, depending on the location. Potential purchasers have to meet certain criteria, in order to be eligible to purchase a property in the scheme. These restrictions on sale price and purchaser exist in perpetuity, and are applied each time the property is sold.

How much is the Discount?

The level of discount varies, depending on the location of the property. Currently, the discount ranges from 17%-40% of the Open Market Value. The discounted value is the maximum for which a property can be sold. On this property the discounted value is 60% of the full market value and this is the price the house is advertised at. Please note this is not shared ownership and the buyer is buying 100% of the property but at a discounted price.

Who is the Scheme for?

The scheme is designed to assist people on low income to purchase a property. It is not aimed solely at first time buyers, but is open to anyone who meets the eligibility criteria.

What are the Eligibility Criteria?

There are three criteria that prospective purchasers have to meet:

1. You must intend to use the property as your only or principal home.

2. You must, in the opinion of the Head of Housing, be in need of assistance through the scheme.

3. You must have close links with the Borough of Chorley.

Please note: the residence criterion varies, depending on location. For properties in Coppull, you must have a close link with Coppull. Please ask for further details.
