Housing have been given the green light to begin buying back properties in Broxtowe. This scheme is open to all Broxtowe home owners who own ex-council properties. If you would like us to consider buying your property, a request will need to be made in writing including the information below.

Personal information

• Owner's name
• Full Address with postcode
• Contact details

Property details

• Number of bedrooms
• Type of Heating (gas, electric etc ...)
• Any alterations on the property. This could be loft conversions, conservatories etc...

Please send your request to:

Housing Performance and Strategy Team

Broxtowe Borough Council

Council Offices

Or email: housingstrategy@broxtowe.gov.uk

You will then receive a letter advising you that we are considering the property. We will be in touch again to confirm, if we would like to buy your property and what happens next.

NOTE: This process is exactly the same as selling a house on the open market. The timescales are the same and can take months just like a private sale.
