Castle Point Plan Consultation

We’ve set out a bold, community-led strategy for sustainable growth across the Borough. The Castle Point Plan will set out where new development will be allocated, how much affordable housing will be built and more up to 2043.

Please give us your views in our consultation 

Can I Buy My Home?


Under the Right to Buy scheme, most tenants have the legal right to buy their home. However, the following tenants are unable to buy their home: 

•    Tenants of sheltered housing schemes.
•    Tenants occupying some of our properties that are suitable for occupation by elderly or disabled tenants.
•    Non-secure tenants (generally those occupying properties on a temporary basis or those who have a broken court order).
•    Tenants of properties which the Council intends to demolish.
