Buying the loft space above your home

If you wish to apply to purchase the loft space, you’ll need to complete the application form at the bottom of this page.

Some points to note before you apply:

  • The completion of the purchase will need to be done before you carry out any alterations. You can submit both your application to purchase, and your alterations plans at the same time to make it easier for you.
  • Your application will be dealt with by Hyde’s Home Ownership team. We’ll let you know that we’ve received your application, and ask one of our surveyors to inspect the loft. We need to check if any alterations will effect any communal services.
  • All our surveyors are RICS qualified. They’ll determine the price you’ll have to pay for the loft. This price is non-negotiable.
  • Once the valuation is carried out our solicitors will be instructed to begin the sale process. Legal costs will also be due. Our solicitors will confirm this with you. You’ll need your own solicitors to complete the transaction.
