Nearly 40% of all council flats sold under the Right to
Buy in England are now being rented out privately. Figures released by 91
councils under the Freedom of Information Act show councils sold 127,763
leasehold properties, with 47,994 leaseholders living an another address. This
is a strong indication they are being sub-let. The full data reveals that
Milton Keynes, Stevenage and Blackpool had the highest percentage of Right to
Buy flats re-let, at 69.6%, 65.4% and 64.2% respectively. See all the figures
on the Inside Housing website.
