As stated is there anyone that has brought a home through Housing comission?

I put my name down for a house this morning and have been put in category 3 and even though there is still a long wait, I was just wondering how buying a house through them is different the through a bank?

Do they sell it cheaper? Or do they charge less a month for repayments?

I am curious to know so I can make the choice to buy when we get one.

I have no idea but im rather interested. Was it hard to apply? How long did they tell you the wait will be?

The application is to rent through department of housing (if you qualify) and then after 3 months of living there you can opt to buy the house your in.

The wait depends on what categry your in, I am in cat C so will have to wait a few years maybe 5ish, but it depends on your situation and your kids health and if your parntered or not.
