Leaseholders

If you own a leasehold property and it is within five years of purchase via the Right to Buy scheme, you will be liable to pay a proportion of the discount back to Great Yarmouth Borough Council. If you sell within ten years of purchase, you will need to offer the property back to Great Yarmouth Borough Council. If you have owned the property longer than ten years or Great Yarmouth Borough Council do not wish to purchase, then you may sell it on the open market.
