You can find out more about the process and how to apply here.

The national Voluntary Right to Buy (VRTB) scheme has not yet launched. We are awaiting further details to be announced by the Government. For updates or more information about this scheme, you can sign up for updates from the Government or contact the Right to Buy Agent service on their website righttobuy.gov.uk.
Some Moat customers, particularly those who previously rented from their council (and were living in their home when it transferred from the council to Moat), may already have the Preserved Right to Buy (RTB). Alternatively they may be eligible for the Right to Acquire (RTA) scheme.
