we keep it as simple as possible...

COUNCIL RIGHT TO BUY: Your Right to Buy your home

Right to Buy: Other regular costs of home ownership

Council tax and water charges

You may pay water charges as part of your rent, and perhaps your council tax as well. But if you buy your home, you will have to pay these separately, straight to the water services company and to the council. So, to compare the weekly costs of buying with those of renting, you must deduct your landlord’s charges for water and council tax from your rent.

Insurance

You will need to consider taking out insurance cover for your home and mortgage. There are four main types:

• Buildings insurance. This is essential. It is needed to cover the full cost of rebuilding your home if it were to be destroyed by fire or some other incident. In the case of flats, this insurance is often arranged for the whole block by the landlord, in which case the landlord will expect you to contribute towards the cost of the insurance. If you need a mortgage to help buy your home, the lender will insist that you have buildings insurance.

• Contents insurance. As well as buildings insurance, you should insure the contents of your home against theft and other risks.

• Life assurance. This is needed to pay off your mortgage if you die before the end of the mortgage period. It means that your family is not left with the heavy burden of mortgage debt.

• Mortgage payment protection insurance. You need to think seriously about how you would meet your mortgage repayments if you lost your income, say through unemployment or ill-health. In many cases, mortgage payment protection insurance will give you the security that you need.

There are various insurance policies which offer cover against these risks. The terms, level of cover, and costs vary. You should therefore shop around for policies that best suit your needs.
