* Discount Market Value (DMV) eligibility criteria and Section 106 agreement – The property is subject to a Section 106 agreement.

The agreement contains obligations concerning sale, marketing and qualification procedure, as well as a restriction on value.

Purchasers of the property will need to demonstrate the local housing need to meet the requirements of the S106 agreement and to complete a DMV Eligibility Application Form, which we can provide.

We can also provide further information regarding eligibility. Any future sale will also similarly need to comply with the S106 agreement conditions.

Discounted Market Sales form part of the Government and Northumberland County Council’s commitment to provide affordable housing for sale or rent at below local market values, for those whose needs are not met by the open market.

To ensure they are affordable, they are subsidised by grants and delivered in accordance with legal Section 106 planning obligation agreements tied to the development’s planning permission.

It is important that these homes are therefore provided for people who cannot afford to buy a home on the open market and genuinely require the benefit of this subsidy to make them affordable.

The Council therefore seeks to ensure that only eligible households can buy these discounted sales homes. Eligibility is determined with regard to local incomes and local house prices.
