Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 · 2008 c. 17View on legislation.gov.uk

Part 2: Regulation of Social Housing — Chapter 4: Registered providers

A purported disposal by a registered provider is void if—

it requires the regulator's consent under section 148, and
the regulator has not given consent.

But subsection (1) does not apply to a disposal by a non-profit registered provider to one or more individuals ("the buyer") if—

the disposal is of a single dwelling, and
the registered provider reasonably believes at the time of the disposal that the buyer intends to use the property as the buyer's principal residence.
