financial year compared to the same quarter of 2015-16. In April to June 2016
(Q1), councils in England sold an estimated 3,362 dwellings under the
government's RTB scheme - an increase of 21% from the 2,779 sold in the same
quarter of 2015-16. The average capital receipt (after award of RTB discount)
per dwelling sold in the first quarter of this financial year was £84,000
compared to £80,000 in the same quarter of 2015-16. Download the figures from
