CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF HOUSING

The Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) is the professional body for people involved in housing and communities. We are a registered charity and not-for-profit organisation. We have a diverse and growing membership of over 22,000 people - both in the public and private sectors - living and working in over 20 countries on five continents across the world. We exist to maximise the contribution that housing professionals make to the wellbeing of communities.

NEW PRACTICE BRIEF AVAILABLE

We have produced a new practice brief on Promoting Homeownership. The brief deals with all the 'pre-sale' aspects of homeownership, including government policies, the different 'products', marketing properties and all the legal aspects of the right to buy/right to acquire.
It provides information on:

  • Promoting homeownership
  • Low-cost homeownership: policy and background
  • The law relating to low-cost homeownership
  • Developing a strategy for low-cost homeownership
  • Providing the service - voluntary schemes
  • Providing the service - right to purchase schemes

It is available from our online bookshop for £12 for CIH members or £15 for non-members. To purchase a copy, please click below:
